What Causes Sudden Nose Bleed Post Sinus Surgery?
5 days following sinus surgery I had a sudden bleed from the nose. Using ice and pressure I was able to stop it. This happened about 10 hrs ago. Is it ok for me to continue with sinus irrigation and to use otrivin plus, as I am now very stuffed up again? I'm in Australia.

Hi,
yes it is safe to use otrivin and the saline nasal irrigation.
if it happens again then see your doctor.
minor bleeding can occur after sinus surgery.
