Hi
Thanks for positng your query on HCM
Sorry to hear you are suffering from nasal papilloma.
Surgery is the primary treatment for nasal papillomas with Endoscopic Endonasal Approach being the technique of choice because of its advantages like No incisions to heal, No disfigurement, Faster recovery time.It may be done on local or general anethesia, however, all are good and produce good results.Many people do not have much pain after nasal papilloma surgery, but every patient is different.However, your Doctor may precribe pain drugs for you after the procedure depending on pain intensity.Generally, postoperative discomfort, congestion, and drainage should improve after the first few days, with mild symptoms sometimes lingering several weeks after the surgery.Your Doctor will be in the best position to judge when you may start work given your evolution after the procedure.
Hope this will help
Wish you a successful surgery
