Wait two weeks after rhinoplasty to resume exercising

William Portuese, MD answers: Exercising after Rhinoplasty?

Can I exercise after rhinoplasty? By this I mean heavy weightlifting, intensive training and protein intake.

It is a good idea not to perform any exercise after a rhinoplasty for at least two weeks. Heavy weightlifting should probably be avoided for three weeks after surgery to prevent and avoid a nosebleed.
