Asked By:Powerful7569 in Sofia, 42

Good evening! I'm trying to stay sane and positive, so a little advice is really appreciated. 9 days after my revision rhinoplasty my dog hit me with his head. I waited for a few days the swelling to resolve and now I can clearly see and feel that my cartilage is broken. I'm going to check with a doctor as soon as I go back home, as I'm currently abroad until Monday. But until then I need some piece of mind, can this be fixed without surgery? Thank you in advance and have a great weekend.
