My nose is bigger than normal, and looks bulbous. My doctor said I need to wait a few days. Will it go back to normal?

Hi there, thanks for the question.  It sounds like you may have had an injury to your nose.  If this is the case, please be patient.  Swelling of the nose can take a long time to settle down.  If you are unhappy with the shape after it heals, please see a board certified plastic surgeon for an evaluation.  Good luck!Sincerely,Dr. Michelle Spring

You don't mention whether you had an injury to your nose. If so, it could take a few weeks for the swelling to resolve.

Based on your question, it sounds as if you sustained nasal trauma recently.  Swelling after trauma is common and can temporarily change the appearance. However, if you are concerned about possible fracture, you should be evaluated by your plastic surgeon.
