It's been a year since I had my nose replaced with an ear cartilage, but it got damaged,
so I got a septum replacement. Sometimes, my nose smells like something rancid or rotten, and when the weather gets colder (even in the fall), my nose feels sore and painful, making it difficult to breathe. I asked the doctor about the physiological changes before and after the
surgery
. Because of this, they only said that it could happen and
did not suggest a practical solution
. Rather, I felt like they treated me as an overreacting person. I tried to make it better that it ended up like this anyway and spoke softly without questioning it.
Moreover, the tip of my nose was crooked, so I decided to get it corrected. I tried it, but I'm worried for a variety of reasons. I don't think I can argue further because of this.
The annoying smell keeps coming, but the doctor said that if there was a problem, it would have been a swollen nose, but it wasn't swollen and there was no structural problem. So, I could use an ointment that would make breathing less painful
. I asked if it was okay to put it on
, and he roughly told me to try saline disinfection.
I asked my friends for advice, and they all told me to go to a university hospital just in case. I
think there are a lot of people in this situation .
How did you solve it?
