I had a septoplasty in right nostril and left concha bullosa surgery on May 5th '16. I did not have any splints and instead had a nose pack for a 5 days. I had to travel (20 hour flight) for work 3 weeks after my surgery and i still have cold,swelling and tip of my nose still hurts. My nose gets congested every 2-3 days and have diffulty breathing with my nose. I also noticed traces of blood in mucus since last 2 days. Is this normal? How long does it take to cold/flu like symptoms to disappear?
According to the surgeon my husband had excessive blood loss During his septoplasty, he still feels so weak 12 days post op. When can He start to feel normal again? what vitamins and or foods will help with his recovery. He needs to get back to work, and is it safe for him to fly?
