frooom Posted March 12, 2020 Author Posted March 12, 2020 I feel like its gonna feel really weird when they remove the splint from the nose. lol
frooom Posted March 12, 2020 Author Posted March 12, 2020 I know its going to be different for everyone, but how long did the stuffiness last?
weiner Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 don't be I was under sedative, so didn't actually feel anything
vee_wudlyktoplay Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 From my experience, as long as you keep an ice pack thing on your nose area while you sleep and keep alternating it with a cold one to your face through out the night, you won’t really feel any pain. I was more annoyed that my throat was getting dry and irritated from breathing through my nose since it was packed and a little swollen. Lol but other than the annoying feeling of not being able to breath through my nose the first 2-3 days, I’d say pain level (like warm feeling and throbbing when there’s no ice pack on it) for me was maybe a 2-3.
missnomer Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 My friend said it was one of the least painful surgeries she has gotten so far. I saw some videos and it LOOKED painful. I never got rhino, but from my experience with plastic surgery and dermatology, skin treatments and lasers might be more painful than rhino lol
granges Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Doesn’t hurt. Rib rhino feels like you worked out for hours. Pain is bearable . I didn’t even take otc meds
jungkook4ever Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 In my case, there was no pain in first 3 days but few days after I started having slight pain as if it's pulled(?) but it disappears as time goes by. I guess it's effect of incision during rhino.. Since tissues inside nose is modified with incision and stuffs
koolkloud Posted April 6, 2020 Posted April 6, 2020 It was tough for me because of the stuffiness, my throat was also dry all the time and my face got very swollen as well. Masks and cap will be a must have to cover up after your surgery!
gmcnm19 Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 No pain at all after the surgery, but during the surgery it was SO PAINFUL. I wasn't in general anesthesia, I don't know what it's called but I'm only sleepy and not very conscious but definitely could feel the doctor pushing things in my nose. OMG it was so painful. But I did it many many years ago, I heard everyone goes under GA for rhino now, which is good.
frooom Posted April 9, 2020 Author Posted April 9, 2020 wait whaaat? did i just read that correctly? you were painful during the surgery? OMG
gmcnm19 Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 You read that correctly. I think I was just under sedation not anesthesia. I didn’t feel the pain when they cut or anything but definitely (& sleepily) felt it when the ear cartilage was put into my nose. Very uncomfortable. But it was yearssss ago and the results still turned out so great for me so I kinda feel normal about it now.
