Patient: Doc! I have difficulty breathing to my left nostril. Can you check? I plant to undergo rhinoplasty also kaya I chose you being an ENT Doctor at the same time.
Me: Thank you for choosing me. Let me check sa clinic.
Physical exam: you have a deviated septum starting at the front of your septum up to the back portion (bony septum).
Do you have any history of trauma to your nose?
Patient: Yes po Doc.
I fell during childhood kaya may scar din ako sa right side ng bridge.
Me: Ah.. that explains it. Cge we can easily repair it but making it look better will be challenging.
Patient: Doc, make my nose look more feminine. I dont want goretex on my bridge. Sexy alar please!
Me: Okay I believe you don’t need it (goretex) Mag osteotomy tayo. Pero for the tip.. let’s standby a Mesh as plan B to add structural support (best is rib if feasible financially).
Patient: (immediately postop) Doc! I can breathe very clearly in my left nostril already. Thank you!
Me: You are most welcome.🙏🏼 Happy healing!👃🏼😇
