How To Breathe Properly After Septo-rhinoplasty?
Hi, I feel like I cannot breathe enough air through my nose, seven weeks after a septo-rhinoplasty with turbinate reduction. External swelling looks super minimal, and my doctor says inside "looks great." But I can't get enough air! Awake or asleep. Have I just made my nose too small now?

hi
I don't think ur nose has narrowed.
there may be some crusts inside obstruction airflow which is common after nose surgery .
use saline nasal drops and steam inhalations to clear ur nose .
this is mostly enough
