Asked By:Summertime_1

Hello. I had revisional surgery 8 days ago & my PS prescribed a non steroid anti inflamatory drug that I have been taking since my surgery & will do so for another 3 days. My understanding is that NSAIDS may help minimise swelling although when my cast was removed yesterday I was pleasantly surprised with my profile but front on my bridge and tip are VERY SWOLLEN so I'm not sure what if any effect these tablets have had anyway. How common is the use of NSAIDs for rhinoplasty?
