Summary
Post-rhinoplasty acne is common, particularly in younger patients. Psychological stress appears to be a significant factor, suggesting the need for mental health support to improve surgical outcomes.
Area of Science:
- Dermatology
- Plastic Surgery
- Psychology
Background:
- Acne is a frequent concern for patients undergoing rhinoplasty.
- Rhinoplasty impacts appearance, making acne a significant post-operative issue.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the incidence of acne after rhinoplasty.
- To identify potential contributing factors to post-rhinoplasty acne.
Main Methods:
- A cross-sectional study involving 152 rhinoplasty patients.
- Dermatological assessment using the Global Acne Grading System.
- Evaluation of psychological status via stress and anxiety/depression scales.
Main Results:
- Acne incidence varied post-surgery: 36.1% (7 days), 42.8% (30 days), 23% (90 days).
- Acne developed in 14.9% of patients without prior acne history.
- Higher stress and anxiety/depression levels correlated with post-surgical acne.
Conclusions:
- Psychological stress is a key factor in post-rhinoplasty acne development.
- Referral to psychologists is recommended for better patient outcomes and reduced complications.

01:30Epistaxis
403
Epistaxis, or nosebleeds, occurs when small, swollen blood vessels in the nasal mucous membrane rupture. Typically, the anterior septum is the primary site of occurrence.
Etiology
Possible causes of this condition include high blood pressure, trauma, low humidity, upper respiratory tract infections, allergies, foreign bodies, nasal inhalation of corticosteroids or illicit drugs, excessive use of decongestant nasal sprays, facial or nasal surgery, anatomic malformation, tumors, or systemic...

Chronic pharyngitis refers to persistent inflammation of the pharyngial mucosa.
Etiology
It often arises from persistent viral or bacterial infections affecting sinuses and tonsils.
Additional contributing factors include inadequate dental hygiene, mouth breathing, recurring tonsillitis, allergic rhinitis, laryngopharyngeal reflux, and exposure to smoke, chemicals, and other environmental pollutants. Allergic reactions to pollen, mold, and pet dander, chronic cough, excessive voice usage,...

01:29Acute Respiratory Failure-V
332
The treatment for acute respiratory failure varies based on factors like the underlying cause, overall health, and severity. A collaborative healthcare team is essential for early detection, often through arterial blood gas analysis. Identifying the cause is the primary goal, with treatment strategies adjusted for ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) mismatch, shunting, or diffusion impairment.
