Surgery for turbines and deviated septum

Watch this

Breatheasy1 View More Posts Ignore	Hi, I'm going in for surgery this Monday to get my turbines reduced and deviated septum corrected. Does anyone have any advice or unanticipated complications that they went through after surgery? I'm very prone to sinus infections and have sleep apnea. I can't use a CPAP yet due to the swelling in my sinuses. Thanks for you help/advice! Posted on 09/24/09, 01:09 am

many mouth breathers use a CPAP with a full face mask so they breathe thru the mouth
a humidifier is used usually
