Nasal septum

The nasal septum is a flesh and membrane-covered cartilage wall dividing the nose into right and left nostrils. Fashion-forward individuals pierce the nasal septum, but perforations can also result from illnesses such as syphillis or rare inflammatory disorders, nose picking and drug abuse. A perforated septum 's symptoms include nose bleeds, recurring infections, sinusitis, whistling, congestion and a bad smelling crust. Doctors can monitor small perforations while managing tjem with ointments, but when a perforation interferes with the ability to smell or whistles with each breath, a doctor may suggest a septal button. Unfortunately, large perforations do not spontaneously heal and require surgical repair. What Is Septal Perforation Repair? Septal perforation repair is rhinoplasty or nose surgery performed using open or closed techniques. Open…

Congestion It’s the time of the year again when our nose is exposed to cold and starts to run, our chest are so congested and nothing feels good. In short, congestion season is here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasal_congestion Nasal congestion is caused by many factors, but its effects range from a simple irritation to older children and adults to a life-endangerment condition for infants, like • Can obstruct our hearing and speech. • Can interfere with sleep by causing snoring. • Can…

licking her nose? A person has around five million smell receptors in her nose. Your dog has between 20-300 million. When a dog is actively checking something out, her nose produces a thin layer of mucus. This sticky mucus covers her nose, and picks up thousands of chemical scent signatures. When she licks her nose, those chemical scents are transferred to the olfactory glands in the roof of her mouth, allowing her to separate and identify them. If you look closely at your dog’s nose, you…

the size and the shape of the pharyngeal, oral, and nasal cavities, which provides the quality and uniqueness of the voice from the vocal tract with airflow and sound. Airflow is converted into air pressure by articulators, which…

usual for a whale (Ridgway et al. 2012). White whales produce sound through the pressurization of the nasal cavities, as has been shown by placing catheters in these cavities of whales. After placement of the catheter into a whale, it undergoes a series of tasks that will cause the whale to use echolocation in order to detect a specific object within its immediate surroundings. The whale will then vocalize as a means of conveying that it has found the object. During this process, the…

Evaluation of the physiologic effects of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC), which “is a heated, humidified, high-flow oxygen delivery system that can generate total gas flows of up to 60 L/min with an adjustable FIO2”, compared to conventional oxygen therapy (COT) for patients with hypoxemia and acute dyspnea in the emergency department was the focus of this study published in the American Association for Respiratory Care Journal (Rittayami, Tscheikuna, Praphruetkit, & Kijpinyochai, 2015). The…

Probiotics increase immunity and decrease inflammation caused by allergens. There are several strains that help to relieve spring allergies, including Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium lactis and Escherichia coli Nissile. Steam Showers - After you have been outdoors, launder your clothes and take a shower. Allergens stick to your skin, hair and clothes, so it is essential that you remove your clothing and take a shower to prevent them from spreading to other surfaces in your home.…

immediately, and their size may be controlled using careful and meticulous dissection. Iidocaine and epinephrine are used to minimise bleeding and a suction freer elevator is used for optimum visualization. Since the nasal speculum causes some distortion of normal nasal anatomy, endoscopic views are more natural than the traditional. Endoscopic view enables many people to observe the procedure, which helps in occasions such as teaching. Operating room personnel may also observe the procedure and…

The skeletal landmarks tend to be more constant and reliable than the soft tissue landmarks. DEFINING FEATURES OF CRANIOFACIAL CLEFTS Number 0 cleft  The number 0 Tessier craniofacial clefts are unique in that there may be deficient, normal, or excess tissue.  Median craniofacial hypoplasia (deficiency of midline structures):  Clinically, it may be important to distinguish among patients with poor brain differentiation (alobar holoprosencephaly) who may die in infancy from those with a…

Speech and Language, 17;32;(2), 141-149. doi:10.1055/s-0031-1277716 − The article stated incidences of hyponasality in both cleft and non-cleft populations. Common causes of hyponasality include swelling of the nasal passages secondary to allergic rhinitis or the common cold, adenoid hypertrophy, nasopharyngeal polyps, or even hypertrophic tonsils that intrude into the pharynx. Other hyponasality causes, particularly in individuals with clefts or craniofacial anomalies, include a deviated…
