A member asked:
Can i fly 8 days after i had sinus surgery and a septoplasty? surgery way 4/3, packing removed 4/5 and a flight to the masters on 4/11

Sinussurg/air travel: Do not fly 8 days after sinus surgery. You can end up with a nose bleed that you might not be able to stop. I advise all my patients to not fly for 3 weeks after sinus surgery.

Yes: I have no objection to my patients flying after packing is out. As a courtesy, you should ask your surgeon if s/he has any objection. Enjoy the game!
