Does Taping and Icing Your Nose Help Reduce Swelling After the Removal of the Cast?

June 28, 2010
Asked By:3814anon in New York, NY

I had rhinoplasty surgery about 10 days ago now. The cast was removed 3 days ago. My nose was not taped and is very swollen especially the tip. It is difficult to tell what my nose will look like after all of the swelling, at least, I hope this is the case, since my nose and the overall look of my face is nothing to what was expected as the outcome. I would greatly appreciate your response and thank in advance.
