Does Crying After Surgery Affect Rhinoplasty Results ?

Biochemist
I had my rhinoplasty 2 weeks ago and it went great. The swelling was minimal. However,this week I learned about a family tragedy & I was crying pretty severely for ~ 2 hours. I am very concerned because for the past several days I been having nose bleeds, lasting as long as 20 minutes. I alo feel very congested & stuffed up and have severe swelling that I didn't have prior. Is it possible that when I was crying I damaged internal structures and reversed rhinoplasty results ? I am worry sick.
