A member asked:
Is it possible to do jal neti ( nasal irrigation) and sutra neti ( string neti ) after septoplasty safely?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nasal irrigation: Many doctors recommend nasal irrigation while the splints are in during the postoperative period. Once the splints are out and your surgeon tells you your septum is healed, you can continue irrigation on your surgeon's advice.
