After Your Coblation Of The Turbinates

1. BLEEDING: Oozing, not hemorrhage, for the first few days is normal.
2. Do not blow your nose for 2 days. Avoid heavy lifting and bending.
3. NASAL CONGESTION: Sleep with your head elevated for the first 48 hours. Nasal congestion lasts for about a week.
4. PAIN: you may have a nasal or facial ache.
5. Occasionally the coblation has to be repeated. We will give you the handpiece to take home. Keep this until we are sure no further treatment is necessary. If another treatment is required, you must bring the handpiece with you to avoid a charge for a new handpiece.
