Weird post op annoyance that won't go away!

I guess I spent a total of 36 hours in the hospital and was on oxygen all that time. By the day after surgery I noticed my nose was horribly clogged up and started blowing it only to find huge globs of bloody mucus with scabs. My nose never did clear up and now, a week later, my nose feels like I've been on a week long cocaine binge. When I blow it I either get big scabs or bloody mucus or both coming out.

Did anyone else have this problem? What did you do to clear it up?

It's the oxygen. You can get a humidifier or some saline based product and put some drops inside.

When I did chemo, the same thing would happen. What helped was the humidifier and distilled Water.

Good luck.

Maybe I will try hubby's saline nasal spray until I can find the humidifier. Thanks!
