Will Picking My Nose After Rhinoplasty Damage The Result?

I'm 15 days post-op and have several times woken up to myself picking my nose in my sleep! Now I worry that I have damaged the result?

Scratching at incisions while asleep

Scratching at any incision at night can be an issue. You could try sleeping in soft gloves for a few more weeks to protect the area and allow more time to heal.
