Patients follow up

Nasal packing is not common in the recent surgeries, if the patient has intranasal packs, it is usually removed day or two post-operatives. If the patient has intranasal splints, it will be removed after one week in the first follow up appointment. In the first post-operative visit, the surgeon would inspect the nasal passage for any sign of infection or any other serious complications.

The patient can resume his normal daily activities after nearly two weeks, while strenuous or intense activities can be resumed after one or two months.
