Will open rhinoplasty with prosthesis be very painful? Is it necessary to have general anesthesia?
Prosthetic rhinoplasty has a mild degree of pain. Generally, prosthetic rhinoplasty will be anesthetized first during the operation, and it will hurt when anesthetized. However, as for the tolerable pain, there will be no pain during the operation after the anesthetic takes effect, and there will be pain after the operation. You can take painkillers to stop the pain, or you can apply cold compress to the operation site, which can effectively relieve the pain. Be careful not to get water on the wound to avoid inflammation.
