What are the nursing care instructions for alarplasty?
Disease description:
Just had alarplasty surgery; the doctor said I need to take proper care at home. What are the post-operative care instructions?
Avoid getting the surgical site wet too early after rhinoplasty to prevent wound infection. You may also take antibiotic medications under a doctor's guidance to prevent infection, such as cefradine or cefixime. However, avoid taking aspirin-like medications, as they may cause bleeding at the wound site. Maintain a light diet and avoid consuming raw, cold, or spicy irritant foods.
