Swollen nose after cast removal (Photo)

Asked By:marialig in Shelby, NC

I had my cast removed today and it is swollen from the sides, top, and tip. I'm feeling discouraged. When will this swelling go down?- Atleast the sides. I liked how my tip looked on the first day of surgery, when I came home from the hospital. It was more defined looking? Now it just looks like a glob that's connected to my forehead.
