A member asked:

How soon after turbinate reduction/ septoplasmy can i return to wearing my c pap mask? deciding on if to have this or not. that is my biggest worry.

You may try: Oral sleep appliance for your sleep apnea. That way you can use it immediately. Proper oral sleep appliance is great alternative to cpap.

Ask your ENT: Depending on procedure preformed and your healing progress, time will vary. Your ENT doctor will tell you when to go back to using your cpap.
