Hit nose while sleeping 7 days post-op rhinoplasty. Started to bleed. Is it damaged? Will this impact results?

Rhino2009
I hit my nose while sleeping 7 days post op rhinoplasty and it started to bleed. The bleeding stopped within a minute and now the left side of my nose is swollen and numb. Did I do permanent damage? Will this impact the results? I had a closed rhinoplasty to reduce the bulbous tip, and add more definition to the lower 2/3 of My nose. I also had an alar base reduction. The bridge bone was not broken however airways were opened.
