Food Poisoning 6 Weeks After Open Rhinoplasty- Will Vomiting Damage Results?

I had rhinoplasty 6 weeks ago. I had food poisoning and vomited twice and I'm worried that this could change my final result. Should I be concerned? My nose looks and feel the same, but I just don't know.

Food Poisoning 6 Weeks after Rhinoplasty

Food poisoning and vomiting 6 weeks after rhinoplasty should not have any effect on your result. I think you have answered your own question - " my nose looks and feels the same".

Food poisoning 6 weeks after rhinoplasty should have no impact on outcome of surgery

Food poisoning 6 weeks after your rhinoplasty should have absolutely no impact on the ultimate appearance of your nose. If you have any questions or concerns such as a perceived change in appearance, contact your surgeon.

Damage

If your nose looks the same and feels the seame then it is the same and you have nothing to worry about. I would think that at the worst the acid like material passing through the nose might irritate the mucus membranes but, no long tgerm effect
