Swollen Turbinate Following Rhinoplasty. How Long Does This Last?

April 27, 2012
Asked By:Asha3000

Four weeks on from my rhinolasty, I am still unable to breathe through the left side of my nose and I suspect that this is due to a swollen inferior turbinate on that side. I was wondering for how long does swelling of the interior turbinate last?
