Rhinoplasty date 7/15. I‘m worried 2 weeks off work may not be enough. I work in a fast paced healthcare setting, making sudden movements & face to face with my own pts. Worried this may be too strenuous at 2 weeks s/p surgery and may delay my healing process? Due to COVID, we wear surgical masks at work. Could wearing a mask could be problematic? Also getting married 1 month s/p surgery. Wondering whether it’s safe to apply makeup 1 month post op & how swollen I’ll be. Thank you!
