Bronchitis before Rhinoplasty. Is it ok to have the rhinoplasty if I have a small cough?

K123456
I am scheduled for rhinoplasty on Tuesday 10/21. On 10/11 I got bronchitis and started taking antibiotics the next day. I have finished the antibiotic series and am feeling 100% better, but still have a bit of a cough. My doctor said I should be fine for surgery on Tuesday as long as I keep resting and improving. Is it ok to have the rhinoplasty if I have a small cough? I'm worried there will be complications.
