How fast is recovery after sinus surgery?

Depends on type: Recovery depends a lot on what you're having done and who is doing it. Typically in my patients overnight they have some sponge in their nose, that sponge comes out the next day and they feel "better". It can usually takes a few days after that until they are up and around and then a week until I have my patients at full activity including blowing their nose and exercising.

1 week: Depends who does your surgery and how it's done and how much work is required. For example with balloon sunuplasty, my patients are back at work the next day. My endoscopic sinus surgery patients are back at work in 4-5 days.
