Why Is The Process Of Packing Removal After Rhinoplasty Described As Horrible? Any Tips For Makin It Bearable.
Posted on | February 5, 2010 | 2 Comments
I’m about to get a Septo-rhinoplasty done. I’ve read that the process of removing the gauze packing from the nostrils 48 hours after the surger is the most uncomfortable part of the whole operation. Is it really so? What is the experience really like? What can be so horrible about remove some thing from the nostrils? What can I do to minimize the discomfort? Will keeping some chewing tobacco or nicotine gum or any other tension relieving trick help? Please only those who had Septo-rhinoplastes performed on them reply.

The is the best excerpt I found from a Blurb:
“She leans over my face, wielding two wood pointers with cotton puffs at the end. They’re about 10 inches long. She closes in on the nose. I cover my face with my hands.
Patricia smiles. “Most patients say this is the most uncomfortable part of the procedure,” she says chattily. “But just concentrate on something else and you won’t even notice.”
I conjure up images of Rod’s meaty backside.
Next thing I know, she’s sliding a chopstick into my left nostril. I suck in my breath, grip the sides of the chair, and hold dead still lest she impale me. “Now we purge the tubes of all the snot and clots,” she explains. (I liked “blood and mucus” better; it sounded more… professional.) She shoves the wooden pole deeper up my nose, pushing and grinning as I dig my fingernails into the arm rests. When only an inch and a half of stick remains poking out of my nose, she takes the tip between her thumb and forefinger and gives it a little twist. A warm glob tumbles down the back my throat. Then the stick continues.
“My god, she’s not stopping!” I think to myself, and grab her arm.”http://www.gettingit.com/article/531 Her entire diary of her nose job from start to finish is in her blurb;
