Recovery nasal surg: Usually recovery from nasal surg(rhinoplasty) is pretty quick.The first week is the worst as you may have packing in the nose and a nasal splint. If you develop bruising, that usually disappear around day 10 post-op.If nasal bones were fractured ; repositioned then refrain from sports for at least 6 weeks. Discuss with your plastic surgeon as there maybe some other issues that i haven't discussed.
