Can wearing glasses shortly after rhinoplasty cause permanent damage?

Asked By:VUnknown in Houston, TX

I had a rhinoplasty two weeks ago and wore glasses for a seconds. I felt burning on my nose (where the glasses fall) when I put them on and immediately removed them. It seems this accident left a bump on each side of the nose. Is this a normal part of swelling? Did I impair my results?
