Will my ability to play intense sports be affected after a rib rhinoplasty and revision septoplasty?

Asked By:hb9212 in South Korea, KR

I am heavily involved in playing sports. I am concerned that the extensive grafting procedure might negatively affect my ability to play sports in the future. AFTER the entire healing process is completed, does rib rhinoplasty affect one's ability to play intense sports (breathing, nose-wise, etc)?
