I'm planning to undergo a septoplasty soon, and I'm worried about how long it'll take to recover. I need to figure out how many days I'll need to take off from work, like should I expect to be out for just a few days or is it longer? Any advice would be really helpful!

I recently got a CT scan of my PNS, and the report shows I have a deviated septum, concha bullosa, and inferior turbinate hypertrophy. Lately, Ive been feeling this weird swollen sensation next to my nose on both sides, but theres nothing visible when I check in the mirror. I'm curious if this might be causing some of the symptoms Ive been experiencing. Like, could this be related to the pain I feel in my forehead, or the discomfort in my upper jaw, the area above my ear, and the side of my head? Sometimes I even notice balance issues, neck pain, and just feeling really tired or sleepy for no reason. Its weird, but these things mainly happen when I'm in an air-conditioned space or when cold wind hits my face. Does any of this sound connected to my nasal issues?

All these symptoms and CT findings are clear that you have Sinusitis, visit ENT doctor for appropriate management.avoid AC and consume warm foods

I've been dealing with a sore throat and notice redness along with little pimples, but they don't seem to have that yellow stuff. A doctor once suggested I use lorfast Am and it seemed to help. Is it safe to take lorfast Am every day for allergies, or should I wait and only use it when those symptoms start up?
