I am a 19 year old man. I like to lift weights a lot. I primarily use machines, so there is a very slim chance I would hit my nose. When does the problem of raising blood pressure (or hitting your nose) subside when working out with heavy weights?

Answer: Rhinoplasty activity Thank you for your question. I usually will advise my patients to wait at least 4 weeks before resuming an exercise regimen. This simply helps the tissues to heal settle for some time before raising your blood pressure to the level of exercising. I would be sure to speak with your surgeon about their preference, as well.I hope that this helps!-David Gilpin

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello trcby12, Thank you for your question.Without examining you, physically feeling the tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history, and discussing the pros and cons of any further treatments it is difficult to be comprehensive.Most surgeons feel comfortable with 4-6 weeks for intense or strenuous workout. I would consult with your surgeon to see what their timeline is for working out would be.Best of luck,DrS
