A member asked:
Ent:"mucosa abnormal, l inferior turbinate and floor of nose w/firm hard white induration.quite remarkable.pale edema of septum" what does that mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say: Each specialty looks at the interior of the nose differently. Was this an ENT or family doc? None of the findings are suggestive of a particular disorder or disease state. It may be as simple and dry membranes. See an ENT or get another opinion.
