When is it safe for me to go back to work after a rhinoplasty and septoplasty? I work as cashier at a busy grocery store. the job is a fast paced job and I also bag the items myself most of the time. It's been nine days my face isn't swollen anymore I just have slight bruising on the eyelid but I'm afriad going back can increase chances for bleeding or swelling and later afect my results since I had a deviated septum and a lot of work was done on both the bridge and tip of my nose (bulbous nose)
