Defect of the nose

Introduction Most of the nasal defects occur in traumatic or nasal tumors. Most of the injuries are bites, especially when they are bitten by rats, rabbits, pigs, etc., so parents should pay attention to the care of infants and young children. Because infants and young children have no self-defense ability, the nose and lips are not clean after eating or eating. Residual food odor, the nose protrudes from the surface, so the animal eats more frequently. A full nasal defect can result from a congenital or acquired cause. Congenital nasal partial or total defects are rare or rare deformities. Acquired nasal defects are more common, mostly due to trauma, burns, frostbite, infection, or tumor resection.

Cause

A full nasal defect can result from a congenital or acquired cause. Congenital nasal partial or total defects are rare or rare deformities. Acquired nasal defects are more common, mostly due to trauma, burns, frostbite, infection, or tumor resection. Those with severe defects are not only detrimental to the appearance, but also cold winds in winter, straight into the throat, easy to contract respiratory infections, and adversely affect the voice due to nasal resonance. All the nose is missing, the pear-like holes are exposed, and they are directly connected to the outside world.

Differential diagnosis

Differential diagnosis of nasal defects:

1. Alar edge defect: The wing edge defect is one of the nose defects. This defect is often full thickness and may include defects such as alar cartilage.

2, the upper wing defect: the defect above the nose is a kind of nose defect, the upper part of the tip of the nose is damaged.

3. Nasal column defect: The small column defect is the result of partial or complete defect of the nasal column due to nasal trauma or infection.
