After rhinoplasty, nasal packing is often used to control bleeding and provide support to the nasal structures. Nasal packing can cause oral dryness, as it obstructs the normal airflow through the nasal passages, leading to mouth breathing. Mouth breathing, in turn, can cause dryness of the oral mucosa and throat, resulting in the sensation of dryness and the need to swallow frequently.

While bleeding is a possible complication after rhinoplasty, the patient's symptom of frequent swallowing is more indicative of oral dryness rather than bleeding.

Although adverse reactions to analgesics can occur, frequent swallowing is not a common symptom associated with analgesic adverse reactions. Other signs such as rash, difficulty breathing, or changes in vital signs would be more typical in case of an adverse reaction. Swallowing can be a normal response to surgery, but in this scenario, the most likely cause is the oral dryness caused by the nasal packing rather than a direct response to the analgesic.

Aminophylline is a bronchodilator that belongs to the xanthine derivative class of medications. It works by relaxing the smooth muscles surrounding the bronchial airways, which leads to bronchodilation. By dilating the airways, aminophylline helps to relieve bronchospasm, improve airflow, and facilitate easier breathing.

Prevent Infection: Aminophylline is not an antimicrobial medication, and its primary action is not related to preventing or treating infections.

Suppress the cough: While aminophylline may have some antitussive (cough-suppressing) effects, its primary action is bronchodilation rather than directly suppressing the cough reflex. Promote Expectoration: Aminophylline is not primarily indicated for promoting expectoration (bringing up mucus). It mainly focuses on bronchodilation to improve airflow and relieve bronchospasm.
