Is Having Bloody Mucus and a Pinkish Fluid Dripping from Nose After Septorhinoplasty Normal?

August 23, 2013
Asked By:Moaz

A day after surgery my nose became blocked and it was very uncomfortable. Blood stopped rushing out my nose instead a white fluid mixed with blood started dripping the next day which i can honestly say is not pleasant having to use a tissue every minute. At the same time mucus covered with blood would pour out occasionally. I checked my nose with a torch and i can say that my nose is full of the stuff. Please could you tell me if this is normal?
