Will throwing up damage the nose cartilage structure created after a rhinoplasty?

jasmineH
I know that stomach acid can dissolve things so I was wondering if puking every once in a while when sick causes harm as some stomach acid ends up coming up through nose? I mean there's nothing you can do about it I suppose but wondering either way and maybe there's some way to mitigate damage if it does happen...? Just wanting to protect the investment! Thanks for any advice.
