Thick yellow post nasal drip, why?

If the ENT is willing to give you PRP injections, I would ask for one last check and confirmation of things;

Ask if your maxillary antrostomy’s are connected to the natural maxillary ostium.

These surgeries can really mess up mucociliary clearance on people, and many ENTs aren’t equipt, nor do they want to assist in sorting through things when started by another ENT.

Orginal ENT surgeons often don’t like admitting their technique is sub-par.

CTs are a snap shot in time and change daily as do the sinuses.

If you have not seen someone whom specifically specializes in revisions, meaning they know what to look for, weather you would need one or not, it’s important that someone outside of the regular community ENT sector can help.

You shouldn’t be feeling sick everyday.

Sorry-I don’t feel that these surgeries help that many people. To those that they do, great. But many people worse off due to poor judgment on ENT side of when/why to recommend surgery for someone.

@303wendy -

Also- prior to surgery, what were your main driving symptom complaints?

Thanks for all the specific info to look for! I’ll ask my newest ENT about those.

I hadn’t considered there were specialists in revisions. Thanks for that as well.

It gives me hope that there are still some options to explore. I appreciate your help!

One quick question for you: would a CT scan or an in-office nose scope show if that connection you mentioned is correct?
