If you have been recommended to undergo Sinus surgery, the following steps should be followed to ensure you are well prepared for your surgery. 

• Medications: Discuss all your medications with your doctor as some medications may need to be stopped days before the procedure.
• Smoking: You would be required to stop alcohol as well as smoking 3 weeks before the procedure as it might otherwise interfere with the surgical procedure and the natural course of recovery post-surgery.

Other Guidelines:

• You need to purchase a nasal rinsing kit that would be required after surgery

• Arrange for a cab ride back home after surgery

In the procedure of sinus surgery, an ENT surgeon may remove tissue outgrowths to clear the nasal passageway for efficient breathing and to reduce congestion.

There are different types of Sinus surgeries, some of them are given as under : 

• Endoscopy: It is the most common procedure for surgery in cases of chronic sinusitis. A camera lens is inserted by the surgeon into the nasal passage to get a picture of the site where abnormal tissue outgrowths or polyps or inflammation has occurred. This camera lens transmits the image back to a screen. After this, the doctor would guide other equipment to the site for removal of polyps, scar tissue, etc.

• Balloon Sinuplasty: This is a relatively new surgical procedure for Sinus treatment in which a thin tube is inserted into the nasal passageway,  with a small balloon attached to one end. The doctor then guides the balloon to the affected area and inflates it. This helps clear the passageway so the sinuses can drain better and would help relieve congestion.

You may expect nasal stuffiness and crusting post-surgery for 3-6 weeks. Although, after the procedure is completed, you are required to follow the steps below so that you recover completely:

• In the first few days following surgery, you are required to change the bandage gauze under your nose, if needed. Discontinue if the discharge stops.

• To keep the pressure off your head sleep with a slightly higher elevation to your head.

• Drink plenty of fluids to prevent dry mouth

• Use mild painkillers as recommended by your doctor along with any other medication that might be recommended by the doctor.

• If nasal bleeding occurs, an ice pack can be applied to the cheeks and nose. Do not snort the blood through your nose.

• Use saline water rinses after 1-2 days of your surgery. 

• Nasal steroids might be recommended by your doctor

• Follow-up visits to the doctor might be required to clear out blood and mucus.

• Persistent inflammation and or scar tissue would be removed by applying topical anesthetic sprayed into your nose.

Some general instructions can be used as a guideline for the period after surgery. This could vary from patient to patient and you must discuss this with your doctor 

• Cough/Sneeze with your mouth open

• Don't blow your nose in the first-week post-surgery

• Avoid hot/spicy food
