Post Rhinoplasty Eye Pain Redness Stinging...

Postby jenny » Mon Jan 30, 2012 10:23 am

I need some help in trying to figure out what could be causing my eye pain burning stinging and redness post rhinoplasty about six months ago as i cant seem to get any straight answers from my surgeons colleague as my surgeon is away and i am waiting to see a specialist.

I started getting nose pains and also sore stinging inner eyes at about the same time and the doc thought it was an infection so i was out on tablets but the pain is tsill there and also eye meds only help temporarily.

One surgeon said this is uncommon but can be nerves growing back, but that was a small general view and i couldnt ask personally. I am very concerned as i hope this isnt permanent so please help? Any advice or likely causes would help me so i can chase up docs to do tests.

i have never seen this before but pain can be caused by a million reasons from nerve damage or irritation to sinus headaches or other reasons. i really cannot speculate especially because i have never encountered it.
best,
