Can I still do rhinoplasty with a fractured knee?

Hello @Abloggy18, thank you for your question. The order of surgeries depends on the urgency of the functional surgery. If you can wait without this intervening in any aspect of your health, it would be ideal to perform first the one with the shortest recovery time. For more information and recommendations, it is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD.

Hi @Abloggy18! Yes, you are able to continue with your rhinoplasty. That being said, I would probably make your knee concern a priority over the rhinoplasty. Best of luck to you!

Yes you can definitely continue with your scheduled surgery. However, best option would be to figure out if you need surgery to treat your fractured knee. If you do, then you need to make your knee operation the priority. After one month, you can resume with Rhinoplasty. Best of luck to you.

You need to see an orthopedic surgeon to determine if you need knee surgery and the timing of it. Also let your plastic surgeon know. If you need knee surgery you could have your nose done while you’re healing from the knee

Hello. If it is fracture and you do not undergo surgery, you may continue with your plans for your rhinoplasty. But if you must have a knee surgery you should pospone the rhino.

Yes you can, but it's probably best to figure out if you can need surgery on your knee. Best to spread out two general anesthetics a month apart

Hello! Thanks for your question. As long as the knee isn't infected and doesn't show signs of an open fracture (bone sticking out), it usually is fine to proceed. Getting an Orthopedic Surgeon to evaluate prior may be a good choice if possible. Make sure to speak with your rhinoplasty surgeon as well to see if he or she has any objection. Hope this helps!

One really has nothing to do with the other. However, since rhinoplasty is a cosmetic proceudre you may want to see an orthopedic surgeon for your knee before anything else.
