I had rhinoplasty in December and I am going to the lake in June. Is it okay to water ski and tube? The boat usually goes 20-25 mph when tubing. (tubing is when you're being pulled by the boat on a raft)

The flap of columellar skin was elevated and the skin posterior to the incision (closer to your lip) was not. Thus the former skin is swollen and the latter is not. Therefore there is a slight 'step' at the incision line and this is due to swelling. All incisions look their worst around 6 weeks...
Dear Awess244, It sounds like you have some post operative swelling that needs to be checked by your surgeon. Your puppy should have nothing to do with your tip swelling. Take good care of your new puppy they are a family member and need lots of love. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.
