Nasal Septal Perforation
Anything that impairs a person’s ability to breathe easily can interfere with his or her life, even when they are asleep. The two sides of the nasal passage are divided by a piece of cartilage and a thin bone. This structure is your nasal septum and it facilitates proper inhalation. If a hole develops in your septum, the results can be painful and breathing may be compromised. The following can cause septal perforation:
- Diseases such as tuberculosis and syphilis
- Previous nasal medical procedures
- The use of drugs like cocaine
- Excessive picking of the nose
These actions can result in a perforation that requires surgery to close and to restore proper breathing without pain.
