Homeopathy for Deviated Nasal Septum DNS Treatment

Severe deviation of nasal septum which may lead to complications like blockage of nostrils and difficulty in breathing due to narrowing of the nasal passage is known as deviated nasal septum(DNS).

The nasal septum is cartilage that separates the two nostrils. Normally septum divides nostrils into two equal parts, but sometimes it becomes off-centre or deviated making one nasal passage smaller than the other. A slight uneven septum is a common feature and about 80% of people have deviated septum to certain degrees, and do not present with any symptoms.

Causes

In most cases, DNS is found to be a congenital condition that might have developed during fetal growth in the womb, though, it may also be caused due to some mishappenings, like injuries during contact sports such as boxing, rough fights, and automobile accidents. In infants, it may be caused due to injuries during childbirth.

Sign and Symptoms

Mostly slight deviation of nasal septum does not present with any significant symptom. Need to consult a doctor arises when DNS is severe and presents with symptoms like-

Obstruction of one or both nostrils, making it difficult to breathe.
Upper respiratory infections where nasal passage becomes swollen and further increase the problem.
Regular exposure of the enlarged nostrils to dry air, which may result in crusting and bleeding.
Pressure on one side of the face due to deviated septum leading to one-sided facial pains.
Deviation or swelling in the intranasal tissues might become the cause of regular snoring or noisy breathing during sleep.
Having side preferences for sleeping, preferably sleeping on the side in which one finds easy to breathe.
Start presenting with symptoms of sinus infections.

Complications

A severe deviated nasal septum may lead to complications like -

Dry mouth, due to chronic and frequent breathing from the mouth.
The feeling of permanent pressure and congestion in the nasal passage.
Uncomfortable and disturbed sleep due to difficulty breathing.
Middle ear infections due to frequent upper respiratory infections.
Atrophic rhinitis.
As a trigger factor for bronchospasm.

Diagnosis

Need to see a doctor arises when difficulty in breathing becomes permanent and severe, there are frequent nosebleeds and recurrent sinus infections.

If the doctor finds a history of facial trauma, with complaints of nasal obstruction, difficulty in breathing, headaches, and bleeding, he may examine the nose of the patient with instruments designed for investigating the nostrils to confirm if DNS is present. The examinations include anterior rhinoscopy and cold spatula tests.

Homeopathic Treatment

As DNS is a deformity that may be congenital or due to any mishappenings, a permanent solution can be achieved by surgery only. Homoeopathy can prove to be effective in the consequences that happen due to DNS, like upper respiratory infection, etc. Homeopathic treatment for DNS may not provide a permanent solution, but help to manage the condition and improve the quality of life of the patient suffering from DNS.

The patient can consult the Homeopathic doctor for DNS for getting relief in the presenting symptoms of DNS as well as help in enhancing or improving immunity, as DNS predisposes to other respiratory diseases. In the case of DNS, homoeopathic medicines are given based on one's constitution which helps in reducing the recurrences and build resistance towards the frequent infections.
