I was not given any way to clean my nose after septoplasty I.e. nasal saline sprey only a cream to apply 4 times daily to the inside of my nose I can not breath at all should I have been given something to help clean my nose?
I had my surgery 10 days ago and had my nose cleaned 3 days ago at my post op appointment however I'm still really congested to the point of getting really bad headaches that last all day even when I take tylenol for them and today 1 sneezed out part of my stitch. The doctor said it looked good at my appointment and the stitches would dissolve but I'm still concerned
I had a septoplasty and this is my 10th day post op. I have had some crusting buildup inside my nose lately. Can I use a Cotton Bud to remove them by my self? What I was thinking was to dip them in h2o2 and apply it in the crustings. Is this advisable?
Day 2 of post-op I cleaned my nose with hydrogen peroxide and a Q-tip. I cleaned around the rim of the nose inside and out very lightly. 30 minutes later my nose started to bleed in little drops running out of my nose. I was unable to get the bleeding to stop overnight although it slowed down significantly. I woke up this morning to a crust filled nose and a good amount of pressure towards the bridge of my nose. Did I cause a preferation ???
Last night I was cleaning my nose as I have since my operation (last week for a deviated septom - septoplasty ) and noticed there were large pieces of dried blood and stiff mucus . I went to gently push it out and instead of it coming out I got a sharp pain and Bright red blood for a minute . There is a stitch hanging out now ... should I be worried ? Is this normal ?
Hello, yesterday at 2:45 pm I had septoplasty done, tonight I was cleaning my nose with saline solution and the plastic film came out after blowing softly... no bleeding at all, I put neosporin but I can't contact My surgeon... shall I go the hospital ???
I had Septoplasty 6 days ago and went for my follow up appoinment today he says he's happy enough and that am free to go but to come back to him in 3 months (only) if am not happy, anyway when I got back home decided I would clear abit of my nose to relieve congestion but next thing I know I got a dizzy spell am just wondering if that is normal? Thanks
