I feel like swelling can really make you look this ugly Around my eyes? Anyway, my eyes are swollen too, and of course I can't wash my face or hair, so I'm just at home recovering... There's nothing to watch on Netflix either, and it feels like time has stopped. This is surprisingly hard.. I had nose surgery because my nose was short and low, and donor costal cartilage was used. It made me think people who had surgery with autologous costal cartilage are seriously amazing, because it's hard enough not being able to sleep lying straight, so how painful must the incision site where they harvested the autologous costal cartilage be..
The cotton packing was removed today, and now I only have the splint on. The inside of my nose is swollen, so I'm breathing through my mouth, and lip balm and a humidifier are essential. It would have been a disaster without them.. That's the end of my day-2 nose surgery review!
