Can excessive laughing ruin the results of a rhinoplasty?

Andrew0202
My family are nothing but clowns. Since they are visiting to take care of me we are trying to bond as much as we can. However, I feel the excessive laughing to the point of tears could be detrimental to my nose. I am now 4 days post up and I have probably laughed every single day since surgery. My nose feels fine I am just worried it could ruin my septum cartilages tip that was completely reconstructed from nothing. It doesn’t hurt though.
