A member asked:
I'm having sinus headaches, bloody/yellow mucus and facial pain almost a month after having balloon sinus dilation and polypectomy. is it possibly a clot, drainage issue or infection? i've never has such long recovery with previous procedures?

Please see your ENT, after the surgery, there should not be mucus,fever or prolonged pain. A CF and allergy screening test is recommended. Avoid aspirin products for now, untill seen.
