How long to take the filler out after septum surgery

Fillers in septum surgery are usually removed 72 hours after surgery. Fillers such as expanding hemostatic sponges are inserted during septal surgery to support the nasal cavity and provide compression to stop bleeding. Removing them too early may not provide adequate support and compression, and removing them too late may increase the risk of infection. It is generally recommended that these fillers be removed by a healthcare professional 72 hours after surgery. Fillers such as expanding hemostatic sponges may cause some discomfort, so patients are advised to keep a good mindset, avoid too much tension and do not pay too much attention to the fillers. If there is any bleeding after the surgery, patients should inform the doctor in time and take effective measures to avoid self-treatment.
