Hello doctors, I had my open rhinoplasty 10 months ago, and I have thick skin so it will take longer for my nose to fully recover ( even maybe more than 1 year) So is it ok for me to swim in the pool full of chlorine and chemical stuff, and most important will something happened if I ride the water slides especially because they have a strong water pressure that will hit your face when u ride them? did I ruined my nose when i tried those thing or is it safe for my to try them at 10 months post?
