I am getting a nose job but I also horse ride. How long should I wait before going back to horse riding after I have had a nose job? Thank you.
Answer: Noses take about 6 weeks to strengthen after rhinoplasty I tell my patients that it takes about 6 weeks before the nose can take any kind of direct trauma. This is how long it takes bones to heal. If you or anyone you know has broken a bone, casts and splints are left on for 6 to 8 weeks. This is not practical for a nose. So, being careful can do the trick. In my opinion, any sports, including horseback riding, where you can get hit in the nose should therefore be avoided for that period of time. Non-contact sports are OK after three weeks.

Answer: Nose job activity restrictions: Low impact activity after 3 weeks and full activity after 6 weeks. It really depends on the type of horse back riding you plan on doing. A gentle ride is possible at 3 weeks but a full gallop over rough terrain may not be recommended for at least 6 weeks due to the jarring of the nose.

Answer: Ride Horses in 3 weeks after Rhinoplasty After 3 weeks you will feel good enough to ride horses again. If you are a good rider and you know your horse, then 3 weeks is enough. If you are a beginner and the horse is not well trained then wait for about two months to let the bones completely mature.

Answer: Horseback riding after rhinoplasty. Since I ride horses and know the variability of horses, it really depends on the horse and how good the rider is. I had my nose broken making green horses 3 times last year during polo games. If you are a good rider and know the horse well, 3-4 weeks is fine.
