Ball thrown at nose 2 mos P/O Rhino. Doesn't look different, but getting weird pressure feeling throughout my nose constantly.

About 4 days ago a child threw a small ball at my nose, very hard.I was 2 months post op.My nose didnt bleed, and I iced it straight after. My nose doesn't look any different, but I'm getting this weird pressure feeling throughout my nose constantly now, mostly at the tip of my nose.(no pain, just uncomfortable and annoying) Did this cause damage or should this just heal by itself? My surgeon is overseas and I'm not going back until August. Should I go to a GP to check it out or just wait it out?

Yes, you would benefit from a rhinoplasty and a chin implant.  The chin implant will balance the appearance of your face.  However, you do need the dorsum taken down as it is too prominent and the tip needs to refined.  Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.
