Can dose of steriods affect a minor surgical procedure like blepharoplasty?
bubbagumpDec 26, 2013
I am scheduled to undergo transconjunctival bleph in about 4 days. Just yesterday I have a minor ringing in the ear (tinnitus) and the doctor said although it will probably go away by itself, to be on the safe side he prescribed steroids (prednisone) for 1 week. There is no apparent reason or health issue to the ringing, the doc said it just happens randomly sometimes. I have never had tinnitus or steroids in the past. Is that going to affect my surgery?
