My friend elbowed me and hit the left side of my nose 2 weeks post op. Will there be permanent damage?

yesterday my friend & i were watching tv, he moved his arm really fast and somehow his elbow hit the left side of my nose. I had a rhinoplasty 2 weeks ago. I had the bump reduced & the tip rotated up & smaller nostrils. The pain after my friend hit me lasted for about 2 minutes. It did not bleed either. When I woke up this morning & looked in the mirror, theres a slight bump on my bridge now that wasn't there before. Is this just swelling from my friend hitting me? Or did i ruin my rhinoplasty?
