Repeated sinus problems after full rhinoplasty (June 2022). What can I do?

June 2, 2025
Asked By:lokibea in England, United Kingdom

Hi, I had full rhinoplasty in June 2022. I have always suffered with mild sinus issues but I feel they have worsened since the procedure. My nose feels tight, which I guess is normal, my eyes are always heavy and swollen and the majority of the time one nostril or the other is blocked. I get very little relief from this and it is starting to have a negative impact on my life. Orbital pain is an on-going issues (pain around nose, eyebrows and under eyes. I am just trying to figure out if it could be anything to do with the surgery and what your suggestions are for resolving it if it is. Thank you
