Yes unfortunately, your Left Inferior TurBinate has been amputed by your previous doctor which may be causing your Empty Nose Syndrome.
I do not do such destructive surgeries, as I no the importance of the nasal mucosa! My suggestion is that you need to do Jala Neti with warm saline twice daily, for the rest of your life.
