Hi. I wanted to know if yawning may hurt my nose. I feel it is being stretched everytime I yawn and I have no control over it when I feel sleepy. Thanks.
Answer: Rhinoplasty Recovery Yawning will not damage your nose. You have not reached your final shape as the nose will continue to heal and reduce in size for up to a year. Once it does reach its final shape you may be more pleased with the appearance of your nose.

Answer: 1.5 month after open rhinoplasty, could yawning hurt my nose? Yawning after rhinoplasty will not damage your nose. At only 1.5 months postop from rhinoplasty, your nose is still very swollen, which can create a tight sensation with certain facial movements such as yawning. There is not much you can do to prevent yourself from yawning anyway, so it would be best not to worry about it. I would recommend following up with your rhinoplasty surgeon to discuss your concerns. Good communication between patient and surgeon is very important both before and after surgery.
