-
- Since I did not know how to Scuba Dive before my nose was "fixed",
- I can not tell you if the ear clearing thing changed. However,
- I can say that my breathing through my nose got much better.
-
- I also did not suffer much in the sinus cat. like you mention,
- but after I started diving, I noticed that the bridge of my nose
- hurt a little bit more than before when I got to ten feet. (note:
- Since I did not dive, but did swim, I remember what it was like
- to be at the bottom of a swiming pool.)
-
- After the operation, even the swiming pool had a little pressure on
- bridge of my nose. I think you will encounter some different
- sensations than you had before, but these sensations will not be
- "painfull".
