Have you had nasal surgery, but now find yourself worse off than before? If so, you might be one of millions who suffer from a serious medical condition known as empty nose syndrome, or ENS'a complication of surgery. Symptoms of ENS include shortness of breath (despite a wide open nose), nasal dryness, throat irritation, thick, sticky mucus, shallow sleep, and sometimes chronic sinusitis. Many with ENS are depressed. Some have even committed suicide. Endorsed by well-known doctors familiar with ENS, Chris offers a genuine message to the reader and hope for the injured patient through:1) His personal triumph in coping with ENS.2) A critique of turbinate surgeries for anyone considering nasal surgery.3) An inside look at the politics of ENS.4) Best treatments for ENS, many of which also apply to sinusitis, allergicrhinitis, postnasal drip, GERD, and asthma.Martin, Christopher is the author of 'Having Nasal Surgery?: Don't You Become an Empty Nose Victim!', published 2007 under ISBN 9781583851975 and ISBN 1583851976.
