I have a deviated septum surgery that I have been putting off for years next week. I really hope it works. What bothers me is some of my symtoms.

Obviously I have the post nasal drip and the one sinus that seems to be always clogged along with dull tooth pain and jaw pain. The way I understand it I have had a sinus infection that has never really gone away for 12 years.

This is what scares me, I have had a lump in my neck that feels like my jugular vein that has been hard for over 10 years. The doctors say not to worry about it but I do. I guess if it was something bad I would not still have it with out other complications for this long. Does anyone know anything about this. Could it be an abscess or something because of the constant infection?

Thanks for your help,

paul
