Symptoms of NASAL ABSCESS


There is marked swelling and redness of the nasal septum, that area that divides the nasal cavity. It is soft and tender. Rupture of this area leads to drainage of pus. Delay in diagnosis can lead to deformity of the nose as the cartilage is damaged or destroyed. Orbital cellulitis can occur with swelling and redness around the eyes. If the cavernous sinus becomes infected or thrombosed it can lead to a red, bulging eye and double vision.
