What do septal cells do?
Septal cells, also known as Clara cells, are found in the respiratory bronchioles of the lungs. They produce surfactant, a fluid that helps reduce surface tension in the air sacs (alveoli) of the lungs, preventing them from collapsing. Septal cells also play a role in protecting the airways from foreign particles and toxins.

What damage can be caused to the nasal septum as a result of oxygen delivery devices?
Perforation of the nasal septum as a result of using a nasal cannula and non-humidified oxygen has been reported.
What bones form the nasal septum?
The nasal septum is formed by the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone, the vomer, and the septal cartilage.
What are the 3 bone structure that make up the nasal septum?
The 3 bones that make up the nasal septum are the ethmoid, vomer, and the septal cartilage. These bones help to separate the two nasal cavities and provide structural support to the nose.
What are the risks associated with septoplasty surgery?
Although a relatively common procedure, one should still be made aware of the risks involved with septoplasty surgery. In rare cases, the following side effects have occurred; nasal obstruction, failure to resolve co-existing sinus infections, bleeding, chronic nasal drainage, failure to resolve or improve concurrent respiratory illnesses,failure to resolve nasal and sinus headaches, damage to the eye, permanent numbness of the face, prolonged pain and impaired healing, septal perforation and failure to restore sense of smell or taste. With some cases resulting in prolonged hospital stays and additional surgeries.
How does cocaine affect your nose?
Cocaine constricts blood vessels in the nose, leading to reduced blood flow and tissue damage. Prolonged cocaine use can cause nasal congestion, nosebleeds, and even perforation of the nasal septum due to reduced blood supply and tissue decay.

Will your nose be blocked after a nose job?
"Although rhinoplasty is usually considered to be safe and successful, several complications can arise. Post operative bleeding is uncommon and often resolves without needing treatment. Infection is rare and can occasionally progress to an abscess that requires surgical drainage under general anesthetic. Adhesions, which are scars that form to bridge across the nasal cavity from the septum to the turbinates, are also rare but cause nasal obstruction to breathing and usually need to be cut away. A hole can be inadvertently made at the time of surgery in the septum, called a septal perforation. This can cause chronic nose bleeding, crusting, difficult breathing and whistling with breathing." -Wikipedia
