For me the specific question remains unanswered. There are a lot of results about the health effects on respiration, but none about specifically after a sinus surgery. Might be a question so specific that the internet at large has no answer to it.

What I do not get (on Google, search from Germany) is what you describe, my results are all relevant on the first 3 pages barring 2 results about the surgery instead of the fireplace.

Yep. It might just be a really weird ask. Like… no one has ever considered it. Meanwhile, I’m sitting here without a fire.

Can't you ring up your usual doctor to ask? Or well, I guess you'd need to call a lung specialist, but they ought to be able to answer that, no? Or your surgeon who did the surgery.

[–] GilgameshCatBeard@lemmy.ca 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well, I have an ENT that performed the surgery, but he’s not available overnight for questions.

No the surgeon isn't available to talk to, but you can call and speak directly to a ENT department nurse for after surgery issues. This is a far better option than ANY search engine answer.

Use the right tool for the job.

They weren’t available at 3:00 AM either. Which is when I was looking it up.

[–] bluewing@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

Still the wrong tool. You either can wait and call when they are there or you need the ER at 3AM. And evidently you could wait.
