You don't need to skip your classes after DNS surgery . After 3-4 days of surgery you can do your job .

It depends upon the surgeon's skills! I do an Endoscopic Nasal Surgery wherein I discharge my patients within 3 hours of the surgery! The Patient will have Silastic splints inside the nose but will be breathing through his nostrils immediately after surgery! Of course, all my patients will have to visit my clinic daily outpatient visits, for 1 week to have their nostrils cleaned but that is never an issue as the comfort levels experienced by them post-operatively is excellent!

Hi..... To further decrease the chances of bleeding and swelling, your doctor may ask that you follow these precautions for several weeks after surgery. Depending on the extent of your surgery, you may not be asked to comply with all of them: Avoid strenuous activities, such as aerobics and jogging.....This is to decrease the chance of a blood pressure elevation that could cause a nosebleed....Don't blow your nose...Elevate your head when you're sleeping......
