It has been 4 weeks since my rhinoplasty and i have zero pain when applying pressure to any part of my nose, is it ok for me to resume surfing? thanks
Answer: 4 weeks after rhinoplasty - can you surf? Hello,If you were my patient, I would ask you to wait at least 6 weeks. This is really a question better answered by your surgeon, because he/she knows what was performed and can give you better guidance. All the hard work you and your surgeon put into crafting your nose can be undone if their is an unforeseen accident. Be cautious and prudent and patient! Best of luck!

Answer: Avoiding contact sports after rhinoplasty I typically recommend that all contact sports should be avoided for 6 to 8 weeks after surgery. Even though you might be feeling back to your “normal self", getting hit in the nose early in your recovery can still cause some alterations to the nose.

Answer: Post op rhinoplasty ask your surgeon when it is best for you to return to surfing. Depending on the complexity of the surgery it may take more time for complete healing to occur. Your surgeon will be able to answer that question.

Answer: Surfing after rhinoplasty Unfortunately, when you surf, there may be risk of trauma to your face and nose. As such, I usually tell my patients no contact sport for about 3 months. Trauma to your nose during the healing period can alter the final outcome. I recommend that you ask your surgeon about this.
