I Fell on my Nose 4 Weeks Post my Rhinoplasty

Hello,

Thank you for the question.  I am sorry to hear about your accident.  Your plastic surgeon will be able to tell you whether you have done any damage or changed anything about your rhinoplasty result.  Just keep your head elevated and keep your blood pressure normal to minimize swelling until then.

All the best,

Dr. Remus Repta

No bleeding or bruising is a good sign but you did the right thing by contacting your doctor. There is no substitute for a direct exam so make an appointment as well.

  Falling on your nose 1 month after Rhinoplasty may or may not result in tissue damage.  If you felt no pain, heard no popping noise and didn't have swelling...IMO, it's unlikely anything happened.  If however, you experienced any of those symptoms you may have caused an injury that should be discussed with your Rhinoplasty Surgeon.  Minimal fractures, or cracks, in nasal cartilage don't always show up immediately but make the nose crooked months and years later. 

It is normal to feel sensitive after hitting your nose so soon after rhinoplasty, but this will be temporary. Hopefully you've not compromised your final result. You're doing all you can at this point - keep your fingers crossed and schedule an appointment with your surgeon.
