I’m 5 days post-surgery. I’ve never had a rhinoplasty before so I’m not sure if this is normal, but the pressure/pain in my nose is so uncomfortable. It started to ease on day 4 and then today it’s suddenly gotten worse. I feel like my nose is going to snap under my cast!! I’ve taken both tramadol and co-dydramol and even they don’t seem to be helping much. How common is this level of pressure? And how common is it to return after mild improvement?

Answer: Extreme pressure/pain after rhinoplasty. Is this normal?
Thank you for your question. I certainly understand your concern. I would suggest you wait until you finish breastfeeding. There are medications that you will be require to take and we certainly don't want anything to interfere with the well being of your baby.
