Ask a Doctor and Get an Answer to Your Medical Question ASAP
Good evening, thank you for getting in touch. Could you tell me a little more about what you'd like to discuss? I may take a few minutes to reply as dealing with other patients too, thank you
I'm very sorry to hear about what's been troubling you.
It sounds like you may have developed a degree of sinusitis which can happen after nasal surgery. It would definitely be worthwhile asking your GP to take a swab from the inside of your nose to send to the lab and for analysis of what grows. In the meantime I would advise buying something called a Neti Pot (you can get it from Boots), this is a device that helps you more effectively wash out the inside of the nose and also the sinuses and can help you clear any infection. Once the GP has taken the swabs. start using that and also ask your GP for a tube of Naseptin which is an antibiotic ointment to help clear any infection present.
Of course, you're always welcome and I'm glad I could help in any way. Do come back if you've any other questions and have a wonderful day.
I am supposed to ask for a separate thread for a separate question I'm afraid. However I am a cardiologist so this is my area of concern so you are able to direct a new thread to myself if needed. Wishing you the best again.
