Once sinus opening are dialated using balloon sinuplasty immediately the collected mucous gets drained and immediate partial relief is expected. Complete recovery may take about a week. You need to take medications as suggested by your doctor
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
