The Modern Nose Clinic is excited to announce a 30-second cure for the runny, stuffy, congested nose. Hear one patient tell about his experience. This involved an in-clinic procedure that lasted approximately five to ten minutes once he was comfortable.
Dr. Skarada:
This is Dr. Douglas Skarada, and we have this patient here who's a great guy. I'm not gonna use his name, but he was willing to talk a brief bit about what it was like having our cryotherapy done – which is a procedure we do to help you to decrease how much congestion and post nasal drip you have. So, what was the experience like the day of the procedure?
Patient:
I was a little – I was a little bit asleep. I fell asleep on the couch out there when I first came in because the meds that you have us take prior were very effective. So when I came in I was essentially, completely out of it. And then we came back here to the room, which I don't actually remember. And you did your magic.
Dr. Skarada:
Do you feel like it's necessary to go to the operating room to be put under anesthesia, or do you think that that was a pretty easy experience?
Patient:
Oh, it was very easy, and I like the idea that there's not a lot of risk involved like there is with anesthesia.
Dr. Skarada:
Okay. Great. And people sometimes want to know, well, does it – did it hurt? What did it feel like? Do you have any advice for them on that?
Patient:
I honestly didn't feel a thing, and when I woke up later on that evening, I wasn't experiencing any pain at all. So.
Dr. Skarada:
And this is like, perhaps, one of my most fit patients I've ever had in my practice in 17/18 years. How quickly were you able to kind of get back to your normal routine where you could – you know – drive in your car, and kind of get groceries, and take a shower, and just kind of feel like you're getting back for being a normal guy?
Patient:
Well, the next day I was able to do all that kind of stuff. I went right back to work on Wednesday, the day after the procedure. I waited the full week that you advised before I started working out again, and I didn't have any negative effects from the workouts one week after. So.
Dr. Skarada:
I think that that was really helpful, and there will be patients who will appreciate hearing your story. Thank you for sharing that with us.
