How Much Dryness is Normal in the Months Following Nose Surgery?

January 30, 2012
Asked By:A2012 in New York, NY

Hi, I had septo-rhinoplasty with inferior turbinate reduction about a month and a half ago. Some days my nose is bone dry. Is this within the bounds of normal? How long does it take for the turbinates/etc. to recover? Thank you!
