Sinus communication questions
Hi All,
I recently had all four wisdom teeth removed. I am currently on day eight of recovery. When the upper third molars where removed it made openings into my sinus cavity. Which is apparently common. I returned to the oral surgeon about four days post surgery for a follow-up and he seemed very nonchalant about the situation. He told me to continue doing warm salt water rinses three times a day and that if it wasn't any better in about 6 weeks to come back. Very short bedside manner. My question is what can I also do to help them heal. I'm not smoking, or drinking through straws, or blowing my nose or any of the other myriad of things I'm not supposed to do. However, when I eat I'm still feeling air pill through from both sides and when I do my rinses Occaisionally water still runs out of my nose or back into my mouth. How long does it normally take for these communications to heal? And should I be concerned that air is still coming through.
