Foul smell after septoplasty and co-ablation inferior turbinate after 6 weeks.

Dear Rupashar,The crusting can take a while to fully resolve, meaning it may take monthTo help the issue, you can try a nasal spray such as Flonase to help reduce inflammation and mucus productionSaline and a humidifier will help keep the crusts moist so they do not dry out and cause that foul smellAll in all, this will get better, the nose is still recovering from the trauma of surgeryBest,Dr. Nima
