It’s important to be aware of certain signs and symptoms that may indicate a complication or infection. Keep a lookout for excessive swelling, redness, or warmth in the nasal area, as these can be indicators of an infection. If you experience severe pain that is not alleviated by prescribed pain medication or notice an unusual discharge, such as pus or foul odor, from the incision site, it could also be a sign of infection. Other concerning signs include persistent fever, chills, or flu-like symptoms. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to contact your surgeon immediately for further evaluation and guidance.
