Cast Mobile 5 Days after Rhinoplasty

It is unlikey that a loose cast  will cause any problems 5 days after surgery. Be careful not to bump the cast and call your surgeon for instructions.

Cast removal after rhinoplasty

A nasal cast or splint is usually placed after rhinoplasty to maintain the position of the nasal bones after repositioning them during the surgery. Most often it is removed at 5 - 10 days after surgery. You should definitely contact your surgeon to seek his/her advice on being seen for follow up and cast removal.

Hi, At 5 days your Cast/splint should be ready to be removed. Do not remove it but contact your surgeon to arrange removal of cast and tapes. Do not worry, it should be fine.
