Could I have pushed my nose too far to one side or caused damage by pushing on one side?

Asked By:neyney12 in Glendale, CA

I'm ten days post op my doctor has asked me to push on the top left side of my bridge three times a day for ten seconds for two weeks because he added extra cartilage to the right hand side. I guess he wants to prevent my nose from moving to the left. I'm scared this will shift the cartilage.
