In pain after rhinoplasty. Is it normal?

Asked By:hershe22 in NYC

I just had rhinoplasty (hump nose) 16hours ago. And I have a lot of pain. Maybe I'm sensitive, but I cant even sleep. Especially my teeth hurt really intense! I took the medication right after eating, but it just doesnt hit in. I still have pain (teeth, nose, head). I called the clinic and they said its normal and I should wait. I'm afraid it might be because of the doctor's lack of skill. What do you think? Why is it so painful even with medication? Am I a victim of a bad plastic surgeon?
