Deviated septum or something else?

[nolovelost]

Anyone have any experience of this or these symptoms?

I've been drooling excessively (just when asleep) which is causing cracks in corners of my mouth. And also sometimes I get pain in my face (generally face, head, throat and jaw) and never really connected the two.

Google says that these can be symptoms of a deviated septum. I'll also add that I have two autoimmune diseases.

Thanks.

I had a deviated septum but did not have symptoms like yours. Mine was mostly congestion and frequent sinus infections. Disappeared after surgery but left me with a nerve issue!

I have one, I can’t really breathe out of one of my nostrils, my sinus on that side is very painful when I have a cold, I also sneeze differently. Mine is a rugby injury, luckily my nose is still straight and there isn’t a visible bump.

If you’re drool is causing sore skin could you put a generous amount of vaseline on your mouth?

If you’re worried seek advice from a medical professional.

Oh dear, I'm sorry. Was the nerve issue due to the surgery?

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, good point - I need vaseline! Thank you.
