The cream will not work. Steroids are complex medicines that need a specialist nose surgeon to use safely. They have risks and benefits. I use steroids in some case when needed. However there are risks with steroids. So often I hear patients say "I've read on the internet that steroids can reduce swelling" I have to explain that nose swelling has many causes and it's not that simple. You will need specialist advice. Most swelling gets better by itself in time - 6 to 12 months.

As you don't really know what technique your surgeon used for your rhinoplasty, it always good to ask him as it may very subjective. Generally speaking, avoid any solid food the first day. From next day avoid hot drinks or food and food that stress too much your lips/mouth. If you...
