Urine infection before rhinoplasty?

RSMember94850Jun 14, 2015
My rhinoplasty is in less than 3 weeks and i went to my regular doctor for a check up and everything in my blood came out normal. However, my urine test came out bad and said i have an infection. She will double check with a urine test ill take tomorrow. But if she prescribes me antibiotics and i take them for a week,will it affect my Rhinoplasty? Ill be calling my surgeon's office tomorrow and let them know whats going on. Please help & answer.
