I am 4 days post op froom a septorhinoplasty and just got in a screaming match. It lasted 5 minutes, but I did yell, get upset, get my heart rate up and I could feel myself srunching my nose under my splint. I did not get a nose bleed, but Iam wondering if I could have caused any internal damage. I did also cry for a few minutes. I also have a graft in the tip of my nose and cartilage added to the sides of my nose for nostril support. Thank you for your answers. I'm very concerned.
