Welcome to the Empty Nose Syndrome Self-Help Website

This site was founded by ENS sufferers in 2005, and it is a leading source of information about ENS on the Internet. The primary goal of this website is to act as a center of information for ENS sufferers in the hope that this information empowers them to cope better with this problem.

ENS, we believe, is one of the most misunderstood, devastating, iatrogenic problems in American medicine today. As a leading Internet source, our site enjoys more than 300 unique visitors per day and hundreds of forum members. We encourage all ENS sufferers to register on the patient list to provide us with current, relevant data. We hope this site helps to shed light on this silent, preventable problem. Among other features, this site includes:

  1. A thorough description of what ENS is, which includes a list of symptoms, many sceintific references and current suggested ways of coping.
  2. Tutorials about the nasal turbinates, nose and respiratory system.
  3. A forum where ENS' leading medical authority Dr. Steven Houser of Cleveland, Ohio , answers patient questions and where ENS sufferers support each other and discuss treatments.
  4. Revealing testimonials.
  5. A half-hour audiotape by Dr. Eugene Kern, who coined the term “empty nose syndrome.”.

We warmly welcome and encourage your involvement; your grass-root efforts on behalf of ENS are strongly encouraged. Thank you for taking interest in our website. We hope you find the information you need and wish you happy browsing and good nasal health.
