Check with your Dr.: These are great questions to ask! However, the answers really depend upon the extent of your treatment and what exactly was done, such as which of the six turbinates were treated, if there was disruption of the lining of the turbinates and so on. These are questions best answered by the doctor who performed the procedure and he/she should be delighted to give you some very good instructions.
