Turbinate surgery: Severe allergy causes turbinates in your nose to swell up. If it is resistant to allergy medications, surgery can be performed to reduce the size of turbinates.

Turbinate surgery: Can relieve your symptoms if properly performed. Partial inferior turbinectomies or turbinoplasties can open your airways without excessive dryness or empty nose syndrome. See a qualified ENT or plastic surgeon!
