After a month or two will it make much difference to how quickly swelling in the tip resolves long term if once or twice a week is a high sodium day? Will alcohol also prolong how quickly swelling takes to fully dissipate? Thank you for your help
In the morning I wake up and its swollen, it looks upturned, then it starts going down mid day, then in the evening after I eat it starts swelling again. Its driving me crazy, what can I do? I try to limit my sodium intake but it still does this. How long will I have to deal with this?
I am 10 days post op after Open Rhinoplasty. My stitches we're removed but I have scabs left, when my doctor tries to remove it said that it was necrotic and now i'm scared i might lost my columella and there will be a gap. There was a ear cartillage strut placed on my columella. My doctor told me not to do anything about it and it's still under observation and i was put on antibiotics(co amoxiclav 625mg), Vitamin c (sodium ascorbate) and ointment (mupirocin).
Hi Guys!! I had Alarplasty plus tip plasty in October 2016/ going on 4 mnths ago. Results Fluctuate via my menstrual cycle ( I get edema nose swelling) or if im too hot/ hard core exercise or/and eat ANY type of salt/sodium! Thus, I have avoided hard core exercise/salt/heat and eat basically alkaline green diet( im hungry lol) Anywho...My surgery was done in NJ and I live in St. Louis My question is can I go to a surgeon here to get a steroid shot on one side? I cant get to my original surgeon
Wondering if using nasal Ocean Spray makes the swelling worse in my post-op rhinoplasty nose? It says it contains sodium chloridewith is much like salt isn't it? Is there a alternative product to keep nasal passages moist (that isn't salty)?
