Good morning. I have septoplasty with facial endoscopic sinus surgery on Tuesday what should i do or precautions. I am little bit nervous
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's understandable to feel nervous before a surgery. For your septoplasty and facial endoscopic sinus surgery, focus on following your surgeon's instructions, which will likely include avoiding strenuous activity, keeping the surgical site clean, and potentially using saline rinses. Rest, hydration, and a gentle approach to recovery are key

I'm wondering if it's okay to keep inhaling steam for like, several months, doing it morning and evening for about 10 minutes each time. I've been doing this since October because my ENT doctor suggested it for a sore throat and blocked nose, along with some meds. Sometimes I still wake up with a blocked nose, so I've continued with the steam. And honestly, I also think it might help with things considering the pandemic stuff, even though I'm all good now after having COVID during the 2nd wave. Is it safe to keep doing this for a really long time, say 6 to 7 months?
Don't steam longer than 10 to 15 minutes for each session. However, you can repeat steam inhalation two or three times per day if you're still having symptoms.

I've been dealing with this issue for the past couple of weeks and it's really starting to worry me. My throat is constantly dry, and it's really painful when I try to swallow my saliva. It's strange though, because I can swallow food and water just fine. This dry throat thing is just nonstop all day and I'm kind of at a loss here. What do you think might be going on? Could it be something serious?
that could be pharungitis,visit your ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment.
