Suggest Treatment For Breathing Problem After Rhinoplasty Surgeries

I have had two rhinoplasty surgeries and I fear I need another one. I am 65 years old and the last one I had was about 8 years ago. I am having trouble breathing and fear that it is collapsing again. I don't know how to find a good doctor near where I live.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Main breathing problems after rhinoplasty are
1. Obstruction
2. Allergic
3. Turbinate hypertrophy

You have to use CPAP for the initial time and then after evaluating your lungs by the chest X-ray and spirometry. It makes your diagnosis and also resolves your problem.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
