Is It OK to Use Steroid Nasal Sprays While Recovering from Septorhinoplasty?

January 29, 2012
Asked By:A2012 in New York, NY

Hi, I have had some difficulty recovering from a septorhinoplasty about two months ago. A steroid shot in the turbinates helped a fair amount. Is it OK to use a prescribed steroid nasal spray over these next months as I heal? Does it compromise cartilage (or anything else)? Thank you!
