Closed nasal reduction recovery advice needed. Will my nose return to it's previous appearance? (Photo)

January 29, 2016
Asked By:Colm171 in Ireland, IN

Closed reduction on broken nose 3 weeks ago by ENT surgeon, you can see from pics nose looks straight now but there is hump on bridge and side of nose. Does this look like swelling to you and how long would it take for all swelling to resolve. Before injury my nose had very small hump on bridge but larger now IMO. What is likelihood my nose will return to its previous appearance? What should I do. Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks
