Can my body be rejecting my spreader graft?

It's hard to know what is causing your symptoms of thick mucous, though it would be unusual to reject a spreader graft. It sounds like you had tissue bank cartilage used to carve your spreader graft.Chronic thick nasal discharge can be a sign of chronic inflammation in the nose and/or sinuses so you should get things checked out in person to see what it going on.

I would need to examine your nose to give a proper answer as to what is going on. Otherwise, it  is just a guess.

Hi there. Your doctor probably used a cadaveric cartilage graft, since a skin graft wouldn't provide the kind of structure needed for a spreader graft. As a specialty, we've been using these cartilage grafts for over a decade. The major problems with them are warping and resorption rather than rejection. The material is treated to remove any particles that your body might react against.Because Afrin helps you, it means you have a problem with the lining of your nose or your sinuses, rather than the architecture of the outside of your nose. Flonase is a great drug, but perhaps you need something else. It may be time to visit with an ear, nose, and throat doctor who can check your sinuses and for allergies. I hope this helps. Good luck!
