When I have my nose splints removed after septoplasty/polyp removal, will this cause additional bleeding?

Question

Sunny Park, MD, MPH · Answer

Regardless of splints or no splints, there can be bleeding up to 2 week after the surgery.  Removing the splint generally does not cause additional bleeding.

William Portuese, MD · Answer

In Our Practice, We Do Not Place Splints in the In the Nose after a Septoplasty Procedure, Therefore there is No Additional Bleeding.  Patient's Can Still Have Nosebleeds After Septoplasty and Sinus Surgery for the First 2 Weeks.
