Will bump on bridge of nose after rhinoplasty go away with pressure exercises? (Photo)

March 30, 2016
Asked By:Dreyes94 in Orange County, CA

I had a rhinoplasty 2 weeks ago and there is a prominent hump on the bridge of my nose. I was told today at my follow up appointment that I should do pressure exercises 10 times today and that it will go away. I am very scared that this is going to be permanent.
