सेप्टोप्लास्टी सर्जरी और पहले की चोट के बाद सूजन और कठोरता के लिए क्या करें?

Client_ae4da9

डॉक्टर साहब, जनवरी में गिरने की वजह से मुझे चोट लगी थी, जिसके बाद टांके लगाए गए थे। टांके वाली जगह के ठीक नीचे का हिस्सा काफी मोटा और सख्त (कड़ा) हो गया था, और मुझे सांस लेने में भी दिक्कत हो रही थी। इसके इलाज के लिए मेरी सेप्टोप्लास्टी (septoplasty) सर्जरी भी हो चुकी है। लेकिन सर्जरी के बाद भी, वो सख्त और मोटा हिस्सा अभी भी वैसा का वैसा ही बना हुआ है—उसमें कोई बदलाव नहीं आया है।"

How long have you had the swelling and hardness after your surgery?:

- More than 3 months

How would you describe the severity of your breathing difficulties?:

- Moderate — noticeable but manageable

Is the swelling and hardness localized to one area or spread out?:

- Not sure

Have you experienced any other symptoms along with the swelling?:

- No other symptoms

Have you followed any post-operative care instructions after your septoplasty?:

- Yes, strictly followed

Have you had any follow-up appointments after your surgery?:

I am a general dentist with 3+ years of working in real-world setups, and lemme say—every single patient teaches me something diff. It’s not just teeth honestly, it’s people… and how they feel walking into the chair. I try really hard to not make it just a “procedure thing.” I explain stuff in plain words—no confusing dental jargon, just straight talk—coz I feel like when ppl *get* what's going on, they feel safer n that makes all the difference. Worked with all ages—like, little kids who need that gentle nudge about brushing, to older folks who come in with long histories and sometimes just need someone to really sit n listen. It’s weirdly rewarding to see someone walk out lighter, not just 'coz their toothache's gone but coz they felt seen during the whole thing. A lot of ppl come in scared or just unsure, and I honestly take that seriously. I keep the vibe calm. Try to read their mood, don’t rush. I always tell myself—every smile’s got a story, even the broken ones. My thing is: comfort first, then precision. I want the outcome to last, not just look good for a week. Not tryna claim perfection or magic solutions—just consistent, clear, hands-on care where patients feel heard. I think dentistry should *fit* the person, not push them into a box. That's kinda been my philosophy from day one. And yeah, maybe sometimes I overexplain or spend a bit too long checking alignment again but hey, if it means someone eats pain-free or finally smiles wide in pics again? Worth it. Every time.

Hello

If the area beneath the stitches has remained thick, hard, and unchanged for more than 3 months, even after septoplasty, it is unlikely to be simple post-operative swelling alone.

Possible causes include:

* Scar tissue (fibrosis) from the original injury and healing process. * A residual deformity of the nasal cartilage or bone from the trauma. * A persistent collection of tissue or old blood (less likely after this length of time). * Structural changes that were not corrected by the septoplasty. Septoplasty primarily addresses the nasal septum inside the nose and may not resolve all external or localized thickened areas.

Since you are still experiencing moderate difficulty breathing, and the hard area has not improved despite surgery and proper post-operative care, a follow-up evaluation with your ENT surgeon is recommended. You may need:

* A detailed nasal examination or nasal endoscopy. * Imaging such as a CT scan if your doctor suspects a structural problem.

Scar tissue can sometimes take several months to mature, but a persistently hard, thick area with ongoing breathing difficulty should be reassessed rather than simply observed.

Seek prompt medical attention if you develop:

* Worsening breathing difficulty * Increasing swelling * Redness, warmth, fever, or drainage from the area * Significant pain

The next best step is to schedule another follow-up with your ENT specialist to determine whether the hard area represents scar tissue or a structural issue that may require additional treatment.

Take care

I completed my medical degree in 2023, but honestly, my journey in healthcare started way before that. Since 2018, I’ve been actively involved in clinical practice—getting hands-on exposure across multiple departments like ENT, pediatrics, dermatology, ophthalmology, medicine, and emergency care. One of the most intense and defining phases of my training was working at a District Government Hospital for a full year during the COVID pandemic. It was chaotic, unpredictable, and exhausting—but it also grounded me in real-world medicine like no textbook ever could. Over time, I’ve worked in both OPD and IPD setups, handling everything from mild viral fevers to more stubborn, long-term conditions. These day-to-day experiences really built my base and taught me how to stay calm when things get hectic—and how to adjust fast when plans don’t go as expected. What I’ve learned most is that care isn't only about writing the right medicine. It’s about being fully there, listening properly, and making sure the person feels seen—not just treated. Alongside clinical work, I’ve also been exposed to preventive health, health education, and community outreach. These areas really matter to me because I believe real impact begins outside the hospital, with awareness and early intervention. My approach is always centered around clarity, empathy, and clinical logic—I like to make sure every patient knows exactly what’s going on and why we’re doing what we’re doing. I’ve always felt a pull towards general medicine and internal care, and honestly, I’m still learning every single day—each patient brings a new lesson. Medicine never really sits still, it keeps shifting, and I try to shift with it. Not just in terms of what I know, but also in how I listen and respond. For me, it’s always been about giving real care. Genuine, respectful, and the kind that actually helps a person heal—inside and out.

The hard, thick area beneath the site where the stitches were placed after your injury in January, which has remained unchanged for more than 3 months despite undergoing septoplasty, may be due to scar tissue (fibrosis), thickened healing tissue, or other post-traumatic tissue changes. If the septoplasty corrected the internal nasal structure but the hard area has not improved, the persistent swelling or firmness may be related to the injury itself rather than the nasal septum. Since you are still experiencing moderate breathing difficulty and have only had one follow-up visit, it would be reasonable to return to your ENT specialist for reassessment. The doctor may recommend a physical examination and, if necessary, tests such as nasal endoscopy or a CT scan to determine whether the persistent hard area is scar tissue, residual structural abnormality, or another issue. Overall, a firm area that persists for months after trauma is often not dangerous, but because it has not improved after surgery and is associated with breathing difficulty, further evaluation is warranted.

I am a qualified medical doctor with MBBS and DNB Diploma in Family Medicine from NBEMS, and my work has always been centered on treating patients in a complete, not just symptom based way. During my DNB training I rotated through almost every core department—Internal medicine, Pediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Surgery, Orthopedics, ENT, Dermatology, Psychiatry, Emergency medicine. That mix gave me the skill to manage acute illness, long term disease and preventive care together, something I find very important in family practice. In psychiatry I worked closely with patients who struggled with depression, anxiety, stress related problems, insomnia or substance use. I learned not just about medication but also about simple psychotherapy tools, psycho education and how to talk openly without judgement. I still use that exp in family medicine, specially when chronic disease patients also face mental health issues. My time in General surgery included assisting in minor and major procedures, managing wounds, abscess, sutures and emergencies. While I am not a surgeon, this gave me confidence to recognize surgical cases early, provide first line care and refer fast when needed, which makes a big difference in online or OPD settings. Now I work as a consultant in General medicine and Family practice, with focus on both in-person and online consultation. I treat conditions like fever, infections, gastrointestinal complaints, respiratory illness, and also manage diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorders, and lifestyle related chronic diseases. I see women for PCOS, contraception counseling, menstrual health, and children for common pediatric issues. I also dedicate time to preventive health, lifestyle counseling and diet-sleep-exercise advice, since these small changes affect long term wellness more than we often realize. My key skills include holistic diagnosis, evidence based treatment, chronic disease management, mental health support, preventive medicine and telemedicine communiation. At the center of all this is one thing—patients should feel heard, safe, and guided with care that is both professional and personal.

नमस्कार, यदि चोट जनवरी में लगी थी, उसके बाद टांके लगे थे, और फिर सांस लेने में दिक्कत के कारण आपकी सेप्टोप्लास्टी भी हो चुकी है, लेकिन 3 महीने से अधिक समय बाद भी टांके वाली जगह के नीचे का हिस्सा मोटा और सख्त बना हुआ है, तो इसके कुछ संभावित कारण हो सकते हैं:

Scar tissue (फाइब्रोसिस) – चोट और सर्जरी के बाद अंदर कठोर निशान वाला ऊतक बन सकता है, जो कई महीनों तक सख्त महसूस हो सकता है।

Post-traumatic swelling या organized hematoma – चोट के बाद जमा हुआ रक्त या सूजन कभी-कभी लंबे समय तक बनी रह सकती है।

Cartilage deformity या thickening – यदि चोट नाक की उपास्थि (cartilage) तक पहुंची थी, तो वहां स्थायी मोटापन या कठोरता रह सकती है।

कम संभावना में, कोई persistent scar, granuloma या अन्य संरचनात्मक समस्या हो सकती है।

चूंकि:

सेप्टोप्लास्टी के बाद भी कोई सुधार नहीं हुआ है,

सांस लेने में अभी भी कुछ दिक्कत है,

और समस्या कई महीनों से बनी हुई है,

मैं सलाह दूंगा कि आप अपने ENT surgeon से दोबारा follow-up करें। आवश्यकता पड़ने पर वे:

नाक की एंडोस्कोपी (nasal endoscopy),

या CT scan of nose and paranasal sinuses

करवा सकते हैं ताकि यह पता चल सके कि कठोरता केवल scar tissue है या कोई संरचनात्मक समस्या अभी भी मौजूद है।

जब तक जांच न हो जाए:

उस स्थान को बार-बार दबाने या मालिश करने से बचें।

यदि डॉक्टर ने saline nasal spray बताया हो तो उसका उपयोग जारी रखें।

स्वयं से कोई steroid या अन्य दवा शुरू न करें।

यदि आप उस हिस्से की स्पष्ट फोटो (सामने और साइड से) अपलोड कर सकें, तो मैं यह बेहतर बता सकता हूँ कि बाहरी रूप से यह scar tissue जैसा लग रहा है या किसी अन्य समस्या जैसा।

I am a 2023 batch passout and working as a general physician right now, based in Hanumangarh, Rajasthan. Still kinda new in the bigger picture maybe, but honestly—every single day in this line teaches you more than textbooks ever could. I’ve had the chance to work under some pretty respected doctors during and after my graduation, not just for the clinical part but also to see how they handle people, real people, in pain, in panic, and sometimes just confused about their own health. General medicine covers a lot, right? Like from the smallest complaints to those random, vague symptoms that no one really understands at first—those are kinda my zone now. I don’t really rush to label things, I try to spend time actually listening. Feels weird to say it but ya, I do take that part seriously. Some patients just need someone to hear the whole story instead of jumping to prescription pads after 30 seconds. Right now, my practice includes everything from managing common infections, blood pressure issues, sugar problems to more layered cases where symptoms overlap and you gotta just... piece things together. It's not glamorous all the time, but it's real. I’ve handled a bunch of seasonal disease waves too, like dengue surges and viral fevers that hit rural belts hard—Hanumangarh doesn’t get much spotlight but there’s plenty happening out here. Also, I do rely on basics—thorough history, solid clinical exam and yeah when needed, investigations. But not over-prescribing things just cz they’re there. One thing I picked up from the senior consultants I worked with—they used to say “don’t chase labs, chase the patient’s story”... stuck with me till now. Anyway, still learning every single day tbh. But I like that. Keeps me grounded and kind of obsessed with trying to get better.

Hello आपने जो बताया, उसके हिसाब से जनवरी में गिरने के बाद जो चोट लगी थी और टांके लगे थे, उसी जगह के नीचे का हिस्सा अब भी मोटा और सख्त बना हुआ है—even after septoplasty surgery. यह स्थिति आमतौर पर स्कार टिशू (fibrosis) या हीलिंग के दौरान बनी गांठ (scar nodule) के कारण हो सकती है। कभी-कभी, चोट के बाद त्वचा के नीचे या आसपास की परतों में फाइब्रोसिस या गांठ बन जाती है, जो समय के साथ सख्त और मोटी महसूस होती है।

### क्यों नहीं बदला? - हीलिंग के दौरान फाइब्रोसिस: शरीर जब चोट को ठीक करता है, तो वहां सख्त टिशू (scar tissue) बन सकता है, जो महीनों तक वैसा ही रह सकता है या धीरे-धीरे कम होता है। - गांठ या ग्रेन्युलोमा: कभी-कभी टांके के आसपास छोटी गांठ बन जाती है, जो सख्त महसूस होती है। - अगर दर्द, लालिमा, या सूजन नहीं है और गांठ का आकार नहीं बढ़ रहा है, तो यह आमतौर पर खतरनाक नहीं होता।

### क्या करें? - सर्जन या ईएनटी डॉक्टर को दिखाएं: वे जांच कर सकते हैं कि यह सामान्य हीलिंग है या कुछ और। - अगर गांठ में दर्द, लालिमा, पस, या आकार बढ़ रहा है—तो तुरंत डॉक्टर को दिखाएं। - अक्सर ये गांठें समय के साथ खुद ही कम हो जाती हैं, लेकिन कभी-कभी इन्हें हटाने या ट्रीटमेंट की जरूरत पड़ सकती है।

### सांस लेने में दिक्कत अगर सख्त हिस्सा नाक के अंदर या आसपास है और सांस लेने में दिक्कत बनी हुई है, तो यह नाक के अंदरूनी हिस्से की संरचना या स्कार टिशू के कारण हो सकता है। कभी-कभी, सर्जरी के बाद भी नाक में रुकावट या टिशू की सख्ती रह जाती है।

निष्कर्ष:
यह सख्त हिस्सा आमतौर पर स्कार टिशू या हीलिंग के कारण है, लेकिन अगर यह परेशानी दे रहा है या बढ़ रहा है, तो डॉक्टर को दिखाना जरूरी है। वे जरूरत समझें तो अल्ट्रासाउंड या अन्य जांच कर सकते हैं।

I’m a periodontist and academician with a strong clinical and teaching background. Over the last 4 years and 8 months, I’ve been actively involved in dental education, guiding students at multiple levels including dental hygienist, BDS, and MDS programs. Currently, I serve as a Reader at MMCDSR in Ambala, Haryana—a role that allows me to merge my academic passion with hands-on experience. Clinically, I’ve been practicing dentistry for the past 12 years. From routine procedures like scaling and root planing to more advanced cases involving grafts, biopsies, and implant surgeries. Honestly, I still find joy in doing a simple RCT when it’s needed. It’s not just about the procedure but making sure the patient feels comfortable and safe. Academically, I have 26 research publications to my credit. I’m on the editorial boards of the Archives of Dental Research and Journal of Dental Research and Oral Health, and I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing manuscripts—from case reports to meta-analyses and even book reviews. I was honored to receive the “Best Editor” award by Innovative Publications, and Athena Publications recognized me as an “excellent reviewer,” which honestly came as a bit of a surprise! In 2025, I had the opportunity to present a guest lecture in Italy on traumatic oral lesions. Sharing my work and learning from peers globally has been incredibly fulfilling. Outside academics and clinics, I’ve also worked in the pharmaceutical sector as a Drug Safety Associate for about 3 years, focusing on pharmacovigilance. That role really sharpened my attention to detail and deepened my understanding of drug interactions and adverse effects. My goal is to keep learning, and give every patient and student my absolute best.

सर्जरी के बाद सूजन और कठोरता अमूमन कुछ हफ्तों तक रह सकती है, लेकिन अगर यह समस्या बनी रहती है तो इसे नज़रअंदाज़ करना ठीक नहीं होगा। आपकी समस्या की जड़ में हो सकती है कि वहाँ सूजन या इस्कारा टिश्यू का गठन हो गया हो, जिसे चिकित्सकीय जांच की आवश्यकता है। इस स्थिति में सबसे पहले आप अपने सर्जन या ईएनटी विशेषज्ञ से मिलें ताकि वे वास्तविक स्थिति का मूल्यांकन कर सकें।

कभी-कभी पोस्ट-सर्जरी हार्डनेस या फिब्रोसिस को इलाज की जरूरत होती है और ये काइरोथेरेपी या स्पेशल मासेज़ थेरापी से लाभान्वित हो सके है। अपनी दिनचर्या में एक नरम, सूती कपड़े में ठंडा पेक रखकर कुछ मिनटों के लिए दिन में दो-तीन बार लगाना तकलीफ को कम कर सकता है। ध्यान रखें कि आर्द्रता की अतिरिक्तता एक बार में 10-15 मिनट से अधिक नहीं होनी चाहिए।

इस दौरान भारी उठान या जोर देने वाली गतिविधियों से बचें क्योंकि ये हो सके है घुटन को अधिक बढ़ा सकते है। अगर आपको साँस लेने में कठिनाई का अनुभव हो रहा है, तो यह एक संकेत हो सकता है कि तुरंत चिकित्सकीय सलाह की जरूरत है। यह लक्षण मेडिकल इमरजेंसी की तरफ इशारा कर सकता है, तो इसमें देरी न करें। ध्यान दें की उपचार बिना चिकित्सकीय मार्गदर्शन के न करें, खासतौर पर अगर स्थिति स्थिर नहीं होती है या लक्षण तेज़ होते है। किसी प्रकार की क्रीम या टॉपिकल उपचार को चिकित्सा अनुमति के बिना उपयोग करना उचित नहीं होगा। आपकी स्थिति में कस्टमाइज्ड ट्रीटमेंट प्लान संभवतः सबसे प्रभावी होगा, इसलिए चिकित्सक की सलाह बिना देर किये लें।
