Mucus and Nasal Drip After Rhinoplasty?

User Avatar

Is it common to have mucus and post nasal drip 2 weeks after closed reduction Rhinoplasty? It usually affects me in the morning after getting up. I'm trying not to touch my nose but find it quite difficult not to, being that I have to constantly deal with these thick clear drips. Usually the efforts on my part to clear it up end up leaving physically exhausted and mentally drained.
