Medical diagnosis procedure

How is FESS Diagnosed?

Diagnosis of sinus conditions requiring FESS includes:

  • Reviewing the frequency and duration of sinus issues
  • Checking nasal passages and throat
  • Inserting a small camera to examine sinus openings
  • To detect blockages, inflammation, or anatomical issues
  • To rule out allergic causes of chronic sinusitis

These investigations help determine if FESS is the best solution for long-term relief.

Recovery Time

Recovery after FESS is relatively quick compared to conventional sinus surgery. Most patients can return home the same day and resume normal activities within 7 to 10 days. Full recovery, including complete healing of sinus passages, usually takes 3 to 4 weeks. Mild nasal congestion, slight bleeding, or discomfort is common in the initial days and is managed with prescribed care.

What to Expect: Before, During & After Procedure

Before Surgery: The ENT doctor will perform diagnostic tests and advise fasting for a few hours before anesthesia. Certain medications may need to be stopped temporarily.

During Surgery: FESS is performed under general or local anesthesia using a nasal endoscope. The surgeon carefully removes obstructions and restores sinus drainage. The procedure typically takes 1 to 2 hours.

After Surgery: Patients may experience mild congestion and discomfort. Nasal packing may be placed temporarily to control bleeding. Pain medications, saline rinses, and antibiotics are prescribed for recovery.

Recovery Timeline & Post-Treatment Care

  • Day 1 to 3: Mild nasal blockage and discomfort. Avoid strenuous activity.
  • Day 4 to 7: Improvement in breathing begins. Patients can resume light activities.
  • Week 2: Sinus passages continue to heal. Follow-up cleaning may be required.
  • Week 3 to 4: Full recovery, normal breathing, and reduced risk of infections.

Post-treatment care includes:

  • Using saline sprays or rinses regularly
  • Avoiding dusty environments and smoke
  • Taking prescribed medications without delay
  • Attending follow-up appointments
  • Avoiding nose blowing for a few days after surgery
