Is eight weeks post surgery enough time to before I go in sauna?

February 1, 2015
Asked By:chris carter in Clifton, NJ

I'm currently at 8 weeks and 4 days post surgery. I'm happy with the results, however, will like to know if it's ok for me to go inside a sauna. I'm concern that the exuberant heat may have adverse reactions on my still healing nose. I wouldn't like to do anything to jeopardize my healing journey but I miss going inside the sauna as it was very relaxing. Thank you for your replies.
