Eye mucus after rhinoplasty

April 3, 2024
Asked By:Genius527468 in Parker, Colorado

I recieved a rhinoplasty years ago to correct a deviated septum and ever since…every time I blow my nose mucus comes out of my left eye. I asked the dr about this in a follow up appointment and he said it was normal. Wondering if it’s actually normal for this to be happening - or if it’s something to be concerned about.
