External Nasal Splint Looks Crooked. Will This Effect My Results?

Tom Bexhill
Hi, I had a rhinoplasty 3 days ago to straighten out ny nose which was broken in a car accident. Ny septum wasn't broken, just the bones at the top were out of place making my nose have a bump on one side and twist slightly. When I got home I noticed my splint looks crooked, in the opposite direction it was before surgery. I was wondering if it would make my nose shape that way or does it just protect my nose from any knocks I may get. I'm a bit worried about it so can anyone advise me please
