I was hit in the nose by my friend accidentally. (They went to hi5 another friend, I was sitting between them, the momentum from his hand meant that his hand smacked me right in the tip of my nose) It was harder than a tap, enough to make my stitches bleed (mind you my nose did get infected aroun 1.5 wks post op, I was on antibiotics but most the infection had cleared) It’s a bit swollen and hurt for a bit after, I’m concerned that I’ve damaged my nose I can still touch it with minimal pain

Thank you for your question.
It can take up to or even longer than 12 months for a Rhinoplasty to fully stabilise. I would advise against steroid injections as having them now could adversely influence the final result.
Please take this advice with total respect. You clearly have thought alot about your nose. I think you are thinking TOO much about. Rather than trying to figure out what needs to be done surgically to your nose, i recommend that you think about what changes you would like to make to your nos...
