Day 3 after rhinoplasty with autologous costal cartilage

I’m on day 3 after incisional double eyelid surgery, ptosis correction, and rhinoplasty with autologous costal cartilage + silicone. It’s seriously hard to breathe because of the packing inside my nose, and I can’t taste or smell anything either. The packing comes out tomorrow, so once it’s removed, I’ll be able to feel everything again and breathe more comfortably, right? I think breathing through my mouth is the hardest part. When I wake up, my mouth is completely dry, so it hurts, and my lips are really chapped too. Maybe because I had my eyes and nose done together, the swelling around my cheekbones is huge. I’m doing ice packs 3 times for 10 minutes each, walking for 20 minutes, and drinking pumpkin juice twice a day, morning and evening. Is there any way to make the swelling go down better?
