I had a rhinoplasty 3 weeks ago and I was wondering if pinching or squeezing the bony part of the nose makes it narrower? Or will doing so just make things worse? If yes in what way? I applied pressure with my fingers on both side of my nasal bones hoping to narrow it further. I was depressed & realized that it was a stupid thing to do. Will it affect my nasal bones? Possibly displacing it? Will doing that make my nasal bones wider? I do have pain and swelling from doing that.Help! My nose still looks wide after surgery. Oh my nasal bones should be healed already after 3 weeks so applying pressure from both sides should not really affect the bones except cause more swelling and bleeding?
