A member asked:
Is there a reason why i am still suffering 9 months after a septoplasty and sinus surgery, turbinate reduction?

Persistent sinusitis: Sounds like itmismtime for a re-evaluation. Your sinuses may remain obstructed or other sinuses may be be involved. A repeat ct scan may be useful at this point.

Unusual: At this point, most healing should be complete. Return to see your surgeon or other board certified otolaryngologist for a re-evaluation.
