Hello!Great question, you are still healing from surgery at 5 weeks post op so you want to be mindful on how hard you push against your nose. Kissing is fine as long as you are gentle and do not feel any discomfort. It should not change the shape of your nose but if you do see any swelling continue icing and it should go down.Best of luck!

Kissing is fine after surgery as long as you do not get hit or bumped.  Tell the boyfriend to treat you with care.
