How long does it take to not feel pressure or pain on nasal bones after being broken in?

Asked By:nosepickerny in Levittown, NY

I had nose surgery performed approximately four months ago. I've been experiencing pressure and a bit of pain and discomfort up the side of my nose to my eye (perhaps occular nerve). Is this the result of bones being broken or something else? How long does it take to not feel the pressure or pain on the nasal bones after being broken in? Does this always go away? Does age play a factor in the healing process? I'm a female in my mid 30s.
