Discomfort After Removing Packing- VERY WORRIED - Lebanon

last Tuesday i had rhinoplasty and septoplasty. I removed the packing today (Friday). But i feel like i always have a runny nose, like it's full of water or a heavier liquid. I cannot sleep with that. It has been 4 days since my surgery and i couldn't sleep well at all. I don't know what the packing was, but after I removed it it smelled like a lubricant or something like oil. I can barely breath now, but I am very worried about the runny nose.

Great review?

Hi Mazen,

Have you contacted your plastic surgeon about this? I would say that at four days out, you should definitely be in close contact with your P.S. and report any oddities in your healing. I hope you get some relief and sleep soon!
