Nose surgeries are typically considered to be non-painful since you are administered either anesthesia or IV sedation for a more comfortable experience. Dr. Cohn may also prescribe you some temporary pain medications for your initial healing.
After your procedure, you’ll experience swelling, bruising, and potentially some minor bleeding. It’s important to understand that every patient’s pain threshold varies, but most patients report fairly mild discomfort after surgery, with a speedy recovery.
You may also experience some pressure in your ears and head as a result of healing congestion. For most of our patients, this is a short period, easily managed with over-the-counter medications.
