Is It Normal To Have A Constant Bloody Trickle After Septoplasty?

I had a septoplasty on monday and my nose had been bleeding bright red blood for a few days that has now changed to a clear/pink discharge from my nose. The discharge is a constant slow trickle and it leaves me feeling thirsty nearly all the time despite how well I try to hydrate myself.
