Hi- long story short I have crappy medical benefits. I work from home on a computer and am not on screen or video nor do I speak on the phone often. I have high pain tolerance. Is it too unreasonable to go back to my work from home job the day after rhinoplasty? (Fixing deviated septum, turbinates, and reducing bulbous tip).
Answer: Rhinoplasty Recovery Hi! I have had patients go back to work as early as 1-2 days after an open rhinoplasty. In my experience the main things that would limit your ability to go back to work would be pain and swelling around the eyes. If you don't have to be in front of a camera or clients, then it's not unreasonable to think you could go back to work after a few days. hope that helps!

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello! Thank you for your question. If you feel okay after rhinoplasty you can work from home. It will not affect you badly if your bod can tolerate it.

Answer: The feasibility of working 24 hours after rhinoplasty will largely depend on whether or not you have nasal packing. When surgeons routinely use nasal packing after rhinoplasty, there tends to be a very uncomfortable patient experience. Nasal packing is painful while it's in and painful when it comes out. If your surgeon is not routinely using nasal packing, depending on your condition, working remotely from home may be an option. That said, rhinoplasty tends to be a procedure with a lot of emotion behind it. If you find your work stressful, it may be a good idea to take a few days off so you can recover in peace. I hope this is helpful! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hi, it is advisable to have a two weeks time off after your surgery. The reason is that your energy level will be low to work even from home

Answer: Fast track recovery rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. Since you don't have a physically strenuous job, you can definitely start to work again the day following Rhinoplasty surgery. I use an ultrasonic, Rhinoplasty technique, which results in minimal swelling, bruising, and pain. Wishing you the best!
