I have a broken nose and have to have it realigned next wednesday under general anestetic i am due to fly on the sunday will i be ok?

Flying is OK b4 anes: Flying prior to having general anesthesia and surgery should not pose a problem. If your sinus is blocked from the nasal injury you may want to use a decongestant before flying to prevent sinus pressure buildup and pain.
