Can I Run 2 Weeks After Rhinoplasty?

Tbrook
I had rhinoplasty exactly 2 weeks ago. Two days ago I started running on the treadmill, but only ran for 20 minutes instead of my usual 60 minutes of running. I had no pain or discomfort while running, so yesterday I increased it to 30 minutes, again with no discomfort. I have pressure in my nose today, but it doesn't seem to be significantly more swollen. Is this a cause of the running from the day before or just sinuses and other factors? Can I resume my running or will it harm my results?
