I recently moved into a new flat only to find the neighbours attached are heavy marijuana smokers and the smell comes through very strong and lasts for hours. I had open rhinoplasty 5 years ago but am concerned this consistent exposure will affect my results as my nasal tip still gets swollen from secondhand smoke of any kind, and I've had multiple steroid injections because of this. Should I be concerned and could this influence new scar tissue formation or cause change to my nose in anyway?

Hi @erryhospel! I recommend that my patients resume exercise 3 weeks post op. My biggest advice is to listen to your body. If you notice increased swelling after yoga or any physical activity, I would avoid those exercises and ease your way into your routine. Best of luck!
Hi @Pita Lynn! Considering you are only 1 month post op, you are very early in the recovery process and you are still swollen. Swelling can last up to 1 year post op. Best of luck to you!
