A member asked:

I am having an ac joint operation next week, but i have a sinus infection. can i still have the operation or must the infection clear first?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ask your surgeon: Most often if there is a lung infection, or potential one, there can be increased risk of surgery. Best to ask tiur surgeon to allow a real time assessment, and evaluation of antibiotic use for your safety during and after the repair.
