Importance of proper nasal breathing
An adequate nasal function allows us to breathe the air that our body needs, as well as to filter it, humidify it, heat it and perceive aromas.
There are many causes that can alter these functions that can be treated surgically or medically and the specialist indicated to do so is the otorhinolaryngologist.
A nose that does not work properly decreases the patient’s quality of life and can affect neighboring structures such as the ear or throat.
