Have I made a mistake wearing my glasses 1 week after septorhinoplasty? Red marks and strange look to nasal bridge?

Asked By:yusei in Hackney, E9

I had septorhinoplasty to correct my deviated septum (left side collapsed), tip raised up and hump reduced. This happened 31st May. However my doctor said, I can wear glasses whenever I want. But I'm starting to notice red marks and a thin-look on my nose bridge. The tip is still very swollen so can't see final results yet obviously. Has he made a mistake saying I can wear them straight away? cotton wool is under the glasses-pads to place less pressure onto the bridge bones. Thanks!
