Effects of Significant Blow on Nose 9 Days Post Rhinoplasty?

tonytiger
My 2 year old headbutted my nose 9 days after rhinoplasty. I experienced sharp pain which took a couple of minutes to calm, while bleeding occured as well though not enough to run outside the nose when lying with head up. Doctor told me over the phone to rest and try to stop the bleeding. However I am worried as, a few hours after the incident the nose is sore and more swollen than before, more so in the left which was the more swollen side after surgery, while the left nostril remains blocked.
