About 8 days ago I had a septorhinoplasty procedure done. I got my cast and nose splints off on Tuesday. The swelling was apparent but not too bad when they romoved it. This morning I took a hot shower and cleaned my nose with facial cleanser gently. When I got out, there was a significant amount of more spelling all over my nose. I’m worried that I did permanent damage. Was I not suppose to take a hot shower? Or clean my nose? Thanks!!!
