Hi, could anyone tell me what is involved when you have your nose cauterized as my eldest is in hospital tomorrow and is bricking it, he would like to know whether you are in and out or overnight? and also asleep or awake? any info would be appreciated... Thanx Lol & John

hi lol&john
i had mine done going back some years and i was in and out the same day
it might be different for kids and nowadays but it is quite a simple op so try not to worry (i know easier said than done especially when your kids are involved)
i wish him (and you) all the luck in the world for the op

Thanx jan & gaz,
I think he will feel better knowing he will be in and out the same day. The only thing he knows for sure is that he can't lift anything heavy or go swimming for at least two weeks.....Thanx again x Lol & John

I work in ENT theatres and it's a fairly minor operations, he'll have a very light anaesthetic and will not need an overnight stay.

Just a thought, can my lad have any breakfast in the morning as his appointment is only for 2.30pm, have been informed he will only be having light anasthetic. Thanx for any info....Lol

Re: minor operation
 

As long as he's had nothing for 6 hours before his op and again as long as it's light. He'll be fine :)
