A member asked:
I am 52 with adenoid hypertrophy. i have been scheduled for a biopsy but want to fly 2 days later (2-hr-flight). can i do this?

Yes: Yes, I think this should be fine. The complication of course that we are concerned about is bleeding and this is most likely to occur within 48 hours of the procedure. Best of luck! Please discuss with your surgeon, as well.
