Post Rhinoplasty 4 Days I Nudged My Nose. Did I Cause Damage?
I had a rhinoplasty 4 days ago and i have nasal cast on it. Today i slightly nudged my nose accidently whilst going to clean my eye.

I assume the pain is solely from the fact that ive had the op so recently and not to do with me having nudged it?
