Will crying after rhinoplasty effect my results?

Question

About 2 or 3 weeks after my rhinoplasty I started having health issues not related to my surgery though but I've been crying a lot ever since and I was wondering if that affects my results or anything?

Hello,I am sorry about your health issues. Crying will not disturb the healing of your nose directly, but if you are scrunching your face it can affect the healing process. Just be careful, and try not to touch your nose excessively. All the best, Deepak Dugar, MDScarless Rhinoplasty ExpertBeverly Hills, CA 90210

I am sorry for you that you are facing an unrelated problem during your early recovery.  I do not believe the crying will affect your outcome.  Stay close to your rhinoplasty doctor these next few weeks to monitor your progress and explain your situation so that he or she can best assist you
