下鼻甲減容術手術後須知


不常見的嚴重風險或併發症(<1%risk/風險)

1.          Atrophic rhinitis
萎縮性鼻炎
2.          Injury to Eustachian tube
咽鼓管損傷
3.          Death due to serious surgical and anaesthetic complications
由於手術或麻醉的嚴重併發症引致死亡

Before the Procedure手術前準備
Inform your doctor of any medical condition and any medications you are taking. The medications may need to be adjusted as appropriate.
請告訴醫生你的醫療及服藥情況。藥物可能需作恰當的增減。

After the Procedure手術後須知
1.          Nasal packs will be inserted into the operated side or both sides; you may have to breathe through the mouth. The nasal packs will be removed after one or two days.
手術後兩邊鼻孔都會塞入鼻敷料,所以你可能要用口呼吸,敷料會於一至兩日後取走。
2.          There may be mild bleeding after the packs are taken off, which usually stops naturally.
取走敷料後可能有輕微出血,但通常都會自行止血。
3.          You can go home after the packs are removed. Small amount of blood stained nasal discharge is normal. You may also have nasal stuffiness. If you encounter persistent bleeding, please attend the nearby emergency department.
敷料取走後,你可以出院回家。鼻水帶有小量血絲乃正常現象。你亦可能感到鼻塞。假如流血持續不止,請前往就近的急症室求診。
