Dizziness after turbinate reduction and septo-rhinoplasty

Your dizziness may be attributed to a few different things.  First of all, general anesthesia can cause symptoms including dizziness that can take up to a week to resolve. In addition, if you are taking pain medication after surgery, these may cause dizziness.  Another possible cause may be that you are not getting enough air through your nose due to the temporary packing and you may want to try mouth breathing until packing is removed.  I suggest you contact your surgeon to discuss in further detail and rule out any other potential causes.

Thank you very much for enquire.It's too early to make value judgments with only 1 week after a rhinoplasty.Swelling after a rhinoplasty depends of the surgery complexity.In this regard, the nasal swelling Post-op It can last from two weeks to two months.To reduce this swelling, I recommend you perform delicates daily lymphatic drainage massage therapy over the face (around the nose) avoid sun exposure, and take pain/inflamation pills, as your surgeron precribe you.Kind regards, Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-
