Rhinoplasty – How long do you feel blocked up – stuffy nose for PO??

Hi!!

Am 3 and bit months post op from open rhino and still feel seriously bunged up and still cant breathe through my nose about 90% of the time.. just wondering when everyone could breathe clearly enough again? or at least enough to be able to breathe from their noses all the time?

Thanks

Mine was blocked for a while. And even now, I do get more stuffy than I used to, it eases over time when the swelling goes down.x

Thank heavens, I’m the same I tell people it’s hay fever but was sure it was more than that! X

I’m a month po and I’ve been able to breath all the time from around a week, the odd time it will get a tiny bit blocked or one nostril but a spray of that nose spray and its gone, surely you shouldn’t be blocked for that long?? X

Im blocked up every day but then im only 3 1/2 po!!! Im using nasal spray which helps but it says on there to stop using it after 28 days so does this mean i should buy a new one and can we continue to use the nasal spray for a long as we need it, so it wont effect our stitches or anything if used excessively like i am?!?…. just wondering coz im trying to ease up on using it so much but i feel like i need it to breath properly at the moment anyone else feel the same way?! xxxxxx
