My Nasal Airway Surgery (Deviated Septum) & How It STOPPED My Mouth Breathing For Good.

Listen up, if you're a mouth breather you're going to LOVE this video.
I was.
Since I was born in fact.
I was always tired.
I knew my sinuses weren't in good shape.
So I had surgery.
In the video, I chat through what I had done and how I found it. It's a full review of the recovery and what you're in store for.

I had my procedure done in 2016 at age 47 and it changed my life. However, in my case, the also removed my tonsils and shortened my uvula at the same time. Most people don't have all three done at the same time. Not a day goes by that I don't have at least a quick thought of how much my quality of life, energy level, mental sharpness and other things have improved, a difference of night and day. This was literally one of the greatest decisions I've ever made in my life and certainly the greatest regarding my health. If you are considering doing this, please have this procedure done. You will be happier due to the better sleep quality and you will be able to do so many things you enjoy without wondering when you can take a nap. You won't regret it.

In 1986 I had a bicycle accident and broke my nose. My left side is totally closed because of my septum. 1993 I had an operation. It helped for a while but my septum returned left. I hate mouth breathing. I'm to afraid to go back for another operation :( . But you are right its great breathing through your mouth. Thanks for encouraging me to reconsider another operation.

[@StaceyClare]

Oh I really hope you do. It's interesting you say that timeframe too, because my Father had an Op for his nose about then. And again in 1995. He's been frustrated it didn't work. But, he had a huge long chat with my ENT and he was telling him that they do it now. They use laser and my nose wasn't packed with any filling, it was simply just that bit under my nose for a few weeks. I had NO SWELLING on the outside at all, no bruising or anything. My husband and father are both booked in! Def go and have a chat because wow, what a difference it makes. Stace x

I have suffered from chronic fatigue and insomnia for years and finally went to an ent and figured out how connected it is to my nose!! It was broken multiple times as a youngin and now I have been on quiet a few years of disturbed sleep so I’m just chronically deep deprived! Finally gonna get the surgery this month and I’m so glad I’m doing it now. I am a dancer and performer and not someone who likes to rest and take it easy so it’s been hard for me, thank you for preparing em for what’s to come, I know the six weeks will be well worth the lifetime of finally feeling energized and capable in my body!

[@playboydonnie7181]

I have sleep apnea also. I was overweight so I lost weight. Still had apnea. I had my tonsils out. Still had sleep apnea. I was given a new cpap machine that tells you how many episodes an hour I have. I tape my mouth to stop the mouth breathing and the machine would say less than 4 episodes an hour which is normal. The day I forgot to tape my mouth it said 14. So it clicked. The only reason I have sleep apnea is because my sinus are always clogged and my brain subconsciously tells my mouth to open. So I’n in the process of getting an appointment date for my deviated septum correction. Hoping this takes care of it 🙏🏾

Omg that was quite enlightening❤️ so I was searching Nasal septum surgery as my mom has similar deviated nasal bone that blocks her one side of nose almost completely. She suffers from crazy sinus and actually once got it removed via puncture. It not just makes her a mouth breather but as you said, she feels tired and lack of oxygen to brain and other body parts is of great concern too. Headaches and migraines too are caused by this. Now she has a major hearing loss too 😖 I wish we could research about all this years before. Now she is nearly 60 and I wish as a family we could have helped her way earlier 😔 Recently, when my mom said that her ENT specialist has called out for an unavoidable surgery, I was very nervous!

I’m 2 days out of surgery. No big deal. Groggy for about 4 hours after surgery (have someone hang out with you at home). Took 3 pain pills through the first night, mostly for ‘just in case I need them’ but since that first night I’ve needed no pain pills or Tylenol. You’ll have a scratchy throat for a few days from the tube they use during surgery (not helped by mouth breathing). Mostly it’s a nuisance and very similar to having a cold: you have to rinse your nose with saline every few hours, which causes it to drip (and unlike a cold you can’t blow it). You have to sleep upright for a week and breathe through your mouth. The antibiotics may or may not give you diarrhea. I wish I hadn’t watched so many KZbin videos before surgery- they had me SO stressed out, and really it’s nothing much.

[@hfaith81]

Is it hard to only breathe out of your mouth until they take the packing out? It scares me a little because what if I’m asleep and choke. I already can’t breathe out of one nostril, but it scares me a little not being able to breathe at all through my nose and only my mouth. I’ve been reluctant to get the surgery.

[@CactusLuver77]

@@hfaith81 it is a little nerve-wracking to only breathe out of your mouth, but it’s only for about a week and then they take it out. I had your same fears about choking, but to be honest my nose didn’t work that well before surgery so I don’t think it would help much. If you don’t choke on your food regularly, odds are small that you would in the week after surgery, but you could always eat soups for that first week and anyway, they don’t want you doing any heavy chewing, so stock up on soft stuff. I’m now about 3 months post surgery and don’t regret a thing.
