Will occasional post-covid dry cough/chest pressure affect surgery/anesthesia?
I had covid one month ago with mild symptoms (NO fever, just coughing and lethargy) and I have a revision rhinoplasty scheduled at the end of this month in 10 days. I am also vaccinated with pfizer and even though I have tested negative for over 3 weeks now, I have a dry cough at times and chest pressure (if i am in the room with people smoking) that won't go away. Will this affect my surgery or anesthesia? I usually smoke IQos (5-10 per day) and have reduced to 1 per day in the last week.
