Wondering if using nasal Ocean Spray makes the swelling worse in my post-op rhinoplasty nose? It says it contains "sodium chloride"with is much like salt isn't it? Is there a alternative product to keep nasal passages moist (that isn't salty)?

Answer: Ocean Spray after rhinoplasty The swelling, inside and outside of your nose, will not be affected by use of the saline mist Ocean Spray. Overall, your healing will most likely be facilitated by gentle, intermittent spraying/sniffing of this fine saline mist (according to YOUR surgeon's post-op instructions). It clears away bits of coagulated blood and crusting that tend to build up around the stitches inside the nose, usually allowing for easier breathing. Best wishes for a speedy recovery and more beautiful nose!

Answer: Nasal spray Nasal spray in this case is just saline which is pretty benign. It should not impact swelling at all, but may help clear your passages to breathe better.
