Nose Surgery After Care – A Detailed Guide

2 min read

Before getting nose surgeries, patients are asked to stop smoking, halt their consumption of alcoholic beverages, and avoid consuming painkillers and other medical supplements. By taking these steps, patients make sure that their blood flows in their facial regions are perfect for the doctor to perform complex surgical procedures. But what happens after the surgery is complete? Do the patients still need to abstain from vitamins, painkillers, dietary supplements, etc.? How long will the after-effects of the surgery last? Here’s a detailed guide on nose surgery aftercare.

Getting Back to Your Feet

The main aim of nose surgery aftercare [การ ดูแล หลัง ทํา จมูก, which is the term in Thai] is to ensure that the patient is back on his/her feet as quickly as possible. Most recipients of rhinoplasty are advised to cold compress their noses for four to five days after surgery. By applying ice packs, patients can stop the bleeding and prevent issues like fibrosis. All wounds or openings inside the nasal cavities also need to be wiped with cotton swabs drenched in saline solutions. Other prevention steps include – avoiding the consumption of alcohol, minimizing the risk of sneezing or coughing by avoiding visits to dusty places, and regularly meeting the doctor to receive more instructions.

Being Aware of the Risks 

Patients will have to adjust the way they sleep for a couple of weeks to ensure the taped silicon or cartilage implants aren’t displaced. Some common post- rhinoplasty symptoms include profuse bleeding for a couple of days, nose swelling and bruising for a month, slight respiration issues due to the nose swelling, and itching inside the cast. Don’t worry – these normal symptoms rarely evolve into serious problems. As long as rhinoplasty patients follow basic instructions like never letting their nose get exposed to water or sleeping on high pillows, they can expect to recover completely within a month.
