Hello doc...i had my septoplasty 3 days ago...what are the problems that may occur after the operation and how should i take care of myself?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain/bleeding: usually takes 7-10 days for surgery to heal. Try not to blow your nose and avoid nasal sprays unless prescribed by your ENT.
