Suggest Solutions For Pain And Tenderness On The Bridge Of The Nose

I have a very tender nose especially on the bridge of the nose for no apparent reason. I have been taking sinus medication [pain relief] but once it wheres off, the pain returns. I have also used a Sinus spray [steroids], but without any success to symptom reduction.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of painful tender nose which could be due to deviated septum along with serial sneezing,running nose, itchy irate nose, nose block. Need not to worry. You should try medicines such as combination of antibiotics , decongestants along with saline nasal rinses first . Well if you are not getting better despite medical therapy, you may consider surgery to correct your deviated septum (septoplasty). Septoplasty is the usual way to repair a deviated septum. During septoplasty, your nasal septum is straightened and repositioned in the center of your nose. In some cases, surgery to reshape the nose (rhinoplasty) is also performed at the same time as septoplasty. So i would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper diagnosis and decide the treatment option according to diagnosis .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
