Immediate Aftercare and Recovery for Balloon Sinuplasty
You may experience some congestion, mild pain, or fatigue after your balloon sinuplasty procedure. The good news is that these aftereffects are usually temporary and manageable. You can expect to return to your daily activities within 24-48 hours.
However, it’s still important to take the proper steps to make sure you feel your best as soon as possible. Follow these aftercare steps closely:
- Rest and Elevate: Keep your head elevated to reduce swelling, even when sleeping, if needed. Rest and relax for the first 24-48 hours.
- Medication: Take prescribed medications, including pain relievers and antibiotics, as your medical team advises. Over-the-counter pain medication should be enough to manage any discomfort.
- Nasal Care: Use saline sprays or rinses to keep your nasal passages moist and clean, which facilitates healing. Dr. Daneshrad will provide you with a specific hygiene routine to follow.
Managing Symptoms and Activities
Avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting, and swimming during the first week. This period is crucial for your sinuses to heal without additional strain. If you experience any unusual symptoms, like severe pain or bleeding, contact Daneshrad Clinic immediately.
