Snoring after septoplasty

Could be a problem depends on how long after some patients have poorer airflow for a little while untile the swelling resolves so when i take the splints out i tell patient you can breath well now, it will then get temporarily worsee then gradually improve (once the splint are out -tissue can swell again and it takes a a week or two to go away) however talk to your dr about snoring there can be many causes
