“Discomfort After Removing Packing- VERY WORRIED - Lebanon”
Spent: $3,000 in Lebanon
Posted 11 Feb 2011
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.

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!
i hope you feel better Mazen. when i did my rinioplasty i couldnt breath for like 3 months but it gets better and better as swollening goes down. i hope you feel better man. who did the surgery? im from lebanon too.
Yussef.
