I had sinus surgery and septoplasty done 4 days ago but how can I clear up my nose without blowing it?

Question

has anyone done this surgery if you did how did you manage to clear up all the bloody mucous that would stick in your nose? without blowing it? I can't breath really good cause of this mucous in the way.. I tried the nasal sprays but it hasn't really helped

Answer 1

I would ask your doctor first. Don't you have to leave the packing in for at least a week after the surgery? Breathe through your mouth for now.

Answer 2

Use slightly warm saline water. It won't feel very nice, but may help in dissolving those yucky boogers and cleaning out your nose. Why don't you ask your dr?
