Typically after nose surgery I have patients avoid types of food that makes their nose run. These could be spicy or hot foods. Also as the temperature of food goes up so will the blood flow to upper aerodigestive system. So it is best to avoid eating really hot foods and stick with warm or cold food and drinks instead. Good luck with your surgery.
You can eat pretty much anything after nose surgery, but the first night after surgery you may consider food that is easier to digest like soup or yogurt or milkshakes. After that you should be able to eat anything you desire. Confirm my advice with your operating surgeon. Good luck.
