Hi I wore an n95 (tried both the duck bill and the normal looking one). This was 5.5 months post op. doctor told me it was ok, but it put SO much pressure on my nasal tip, my nasal tip now droops at the very tip like a witch. I have been taping my nose at night and have been “pushing up” my nasal tip several times per day, but it doesn’t look the same as it did before this. Is it ok to push on nose like this? What else can I do?
