Can I use a netipot after revision rhinoplasty?

Asked By:lolz05 in Miami, FL

Two weeks ago I had a very long (8.5 hour) revision rhinoplasty surgery. The surgeon took out my old graft and used a totally new one. I am feeling pretty good except my nose feels full of crust and boogers (I can breathe well though). The feeling of crust inside my nose is driving me crazy. I know I can't blow hard so I was wondering if I could use a Netipot or any type of nasal irrigation and to what instructions to be careful?
