New member from france with questions Hi, approximately one year after my turbinates were cauterized these symptoms appeared :
Diminished nasal airflow sensation feedback
Nasal cavities and sinuses over sensitive to cold and dry air
Extreme sensation of dryness of the nasal cavities
Not enough moisture/mucus production (sorry to be graphic but I have no snots anymore)
Dry mouth and white tongue
Difficulty breathing in deep through the nose
Sensivity to cold and dry air
Difficulty concentrating
Thick constant drainage at the back of the nose and throat
Dry eyes
Seborrheic dermatitis
Anxiety, anger, mood swings.
In fact I already have the majority of these symptoms before and I'm sure it's because I took accutane in the past, but after the surgery they worsened.
Do you think I suffer from ens?
How to know how much turbinates were removed?
What can I do to treat the symptoms?
I do jala neti since a month it's good against stuffy nose but my it may be a little drying, is it a good thing to do?

Your symptoms do suggest ENS. If you mail a CT sinus on CD ROM I can give you my impresison as tyo what tissue is present/absent.
A Neti pot is great, though not much force to remove crusts (if you have any). A spray bottle or Grossan irigator will help cleanse crusts.
I would read through this site for excellent advice.
