Is it normal to get migraines days after septoplasty/rhinoplasty? 1 week post-op.

Asked By:brisk in Mesquite, TX

I recently had a septoplasty done 5 days ago and this morning I woke up with a migraine. Nothing is taking it away. I was only prescribed ibprophen 600mg for pain when I left the hospital due to the fact I'm in recovery. I can only take narcotics if I absolutely need too. I find it odd how it took 5 days to get a migraine. I've tried Naproxen, Tylenol, Advil, and even Excedrin, hot baths, ice, and stayed in a dark room all day. Nothing is taking it away!!
