In a car wreck 2 nights ago airbag hit my face. Didn't have injuries, my nose bled a little after & had some swelling felt tender. Also had little bruising on it. I'm 3 months pt. rhinoplasty. 2 days after it doesn't look crooked or broken. Looks pretty much the same from the sides and from the front. Just swollen. Swelling has gone down a lot, still a little more swollen than it was before the accident .What are the odds that this will mess up my results? is it just swelling from the trauma?
