A member asked:
I had rhinoplasty last week and i feel the need to smoke hookah, are there any risks i should know about and is it safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ask your surgeon: Smoking itself may not cause any problems but forceful breathing through the nose can cause bleeding in the first few days(about one week) of your operation. Your doctor or his office assistant should be called and notified/ for permission before you smoke.
