Lightly hitting nose bridge after rhinoplasty with a drinking glass?

Question

I accidentally hit, more like a light tap (no pain was felt, just the sensation of something touching my skin) while drinking from a glass cup. I dont see any damage, could there be damage done from this?

Philip K. Robb Jr., MD, FACS · Answer

Thanks for your questionIt would have to be some aggressive drinking to cause a problem. It's always a good idea to follow up with your surgeon if you have a question. Hope this helps and God Bless!Dr. Robb

Paul N. Afrooz, MD · Answer

Unless you notice a change in the contour, and if it is as minimal as touching the skin, it shouldn't cause a problem.  However, if you are concerned, I recommend following up with your surgeon.  In any case, try to be hyper-aware and protective of your nose for the first 4-6 weeks of healing after your surgery.

You did not say when your surgery was done.   Follow up with your surgeon for an evaluation to confirm no damage was done.
