I had nasal surgery five months ago but I'm still getting green mucus from my nose. Is this normal or should I be concerned?

While it's not uncommon to experience some nasal discharge after surgery, persistent green mucus for five months warrants medical attention. It could indicate a lingering infection, scar tissue formation, or other complications from the surgery. Consulting with your surgeon or an ENT specialist is crucial to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment

I'm trying to understand how to use Tufpro suspension. Is it meant to be swallowed like a regular medication, or is it supposed to be used just for rinsing the mouth and then spit out? I'm a bit confused about how to take it properly.

Tufpro Suspension is typically an oral medication that is meant to be swallowed. It is not intended for gargling and spitting out.
