How long does it usually take to recover from septoplasty with inferior turbinate reduction surgery I'm feeling a bit nervous about the downtime and when I can get back to normal activities

Recovery from septoplasty with inferior turbinate reduction surgery typically takes a few weeks, with full healing potentially taking a few months. You'll likely be able to resume most normal activities within a week, but some strenuous activities might need to be avoided for longer.

I'm really worried about my 5-year-old son's frequent nosebleeds. It's been happening for about a month now, and even though the amount of blood isn't much, sometimes it happens twice a day. We saw an ENT doctor around 15 days ago, and they said it was anterior and suggested using paraffin drops and saline. It did help a bit at first, but then the nosebleeds started becoming more frequent again over the past few days. He's currently taking Oleptal DT 150 twice a day for childhood epilepsy. Do you think we should go back for another check-up?
