ABSTRACT
The article provides information on postoperative therapy in patients with deviated nasal septum and the nasal conchae hypertrophy using garden sage. The authors have monitored the results of 92 patients aged 17 to 58 years with deviated nasal septum combined with the nasal conchae hypertrophy. The study considers the effect of garden sage on the functional state of nose in the postoperative period by rinsing the nose for 10 days after the nasal tampons removal. The study has revealed that the infusion of garden sage reduces the severity of reactive phenomena in the nasal cavity and enhances the recovery of mucosal integrity and ciliary activity of the ciliated epithelium.
