A member asked:
48 hrs after septoplasty, turbinoplasty and mini-fess, using a saline irrigation, bleeding/discharge has just about stopped but no debris is coming out? is this ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: Sounds like a normal post-surgical course after the operation you just had performed. Continue to follow surgeons instructions regarding irrigations post surgery. If you have additional concerns make sure to bring them up with ENT that performed operation.
