When will I be able to go swimming after rhinoplasty?

Asked By:rhofa in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
A month after my rhinoplasty, my friends and I are planning to go to a resort and unwind. But I don’t know if this would affect the recovery and effect of my nose. I have yet to schedule a consultation with my desired surgeon since I don’t know if I should continue (I have a lot of plans that may not be suitable to perform after rhinoplasty). Does a swimming pool and beach makes a difference, or do they have the same oproblem? Thank youuu!
