Nasal Polyps

[Dollie]

Hi - anyone out there had nasal polyps removed? Got to have mine removed this week - small op - but a bit worrying nevertheless. If you have, can you let me know how long your recovery was and if it was very painful afterwards. I've done a lot of reading up on internet but any personal experiences would be much appreciated. Thanks in anticipation.

My husband had this a good few years ago, his was a bit more complex cos he had the bone altered as well cos it was affecting his breathing so he had to have little splints for a short time. even so he said it wasnt too bad, he's had worse footy injuries and recovery was about two weeks. He said it was'nt too painful until I took our 18mth son in to visit him. He was so excited to see Daddy he punched him in the nose! So avoid small children!
