Re: hate to ask, blowing nose question

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

The connection between my nose and left eye is still pretty much there.

Several times when I blow my nose, air (or something else) will come out

of my left eye. I didn't ask my surgeon about this because I thought

this was related to the work done in my sinus area. However, I noticed

it's happening only when I blow harder than usual now.

And if your case is similar to mine, then you might still be bleeding

when blowing, on rare occasions. Nothing like between week 1 and 4,

fortunately.

Hey Ray!!! Yes, i too think it might be air, now that i think about

it. Odd, and it does only happen when i blow harder than usual,but

post surgery and having a massive cold a few weeks back, has been

often. Only in one eye. Thanks for the reply. katie

- Oddly enough, one of my eyes tears up when I blow my nose

quite often. It's usually only when I blow harder, like you said.

But I haven't even had surgery yet. There's definitely some sort of

normal connection there...don't worry about it.

Same here, except I'm at 16 weeks post-op. Untill week #8, I wasn't

allowed to blow. But I'll admit, I did it on occasions. Whitout forcing, I

blew

a few times. Only to expell what was already in the nose, nothing harder.

Surgeon said it was ok, under these conditions. The trick is not to put

pressure

on the bones surrounding the nose, she said.

But, before anyone goes out and blows their nose, know this : I took the risk.

I knew the consequences and I did it knowingly. If your surgeon says not

to blow, don't. You risk damaging your newly repaired bones.
