In the Week After Rhinoplasty Can You Do Much?

kaje
I am considering travelling across the country for rhinoplasty. I am wondering if I were to bring my husband (to help me during recovery) if we could also enjoy/explore the city/region we will be in? After the first day or two would I have enough energy to go for a drive or walk? If I am not too embarrassed due to the splint and bruising would I be able to go out for dinner? Or to the zoo or a show or something along those lines? Will these activities increase the swelling?
