Risk of Having a Rhinoplasty with a Cold?

capik
I've had a cold for a few weeks now and I can't get rid of it (tried inhalations, salted water, etc but still there). My Rhinoplasty had already been postponed 3 times because of it and I'm supposed to go tomorrow but I still have a very small amount of mucus coming out of my nose, should I take a risk?It is really small, I can actually breathe well from both nostrils and I don't have to blow my nose more than 2 times a day. I hope the thyme oil inhalations and salted water are ok before op?
