I had the tip of my nose and nostrils done this morning,, (+question!! )

I had surgery on the tip of my nose with septal cartilage and ear cartilage, and also on my nostrils.. Phew.. from the moment I lay down on the bed before anesthesia.. I kept thinking, what am I even doing right now.. I regretted it so much.. I wanted to run out, but... it finished safely. Phew. I thought that if I had sedation anesthesia, I’d sleep until the surgery was over... But as soon as my consciousness came back.. I could hear all the sounds so vividly. ㄷㄷㄷ Especially when they were removing the septal cartilage.. I really thought I was going to die... It wasn’t exactly painful, but.. that terrifying feeling.. I thought my nose was disappearing.. Ugh.. and then in the middle, I thought the surgery was almost done.. But there wasn’t enough septal cartilage, so they had to use ear cartilage too Actually.. by the time they got to my ears and nostrils.. the shock from the septal cartilage was so intense that I don’t even remember it and it didn’t hurt either~ Anyway.. that’s how the two-hour surgery ended.. Ah. And I have a question... I heard that a lot of bleeding is a good thing.. They said to pinch both sides of the nose to stop the bleeding.. I’m really timid, so even if I touch it only a little blood just runs down... But can I press harder?? And.. I thought I heard that the ear hurts more.. Why doesn’t my ear hurt at all?? Because there isn’t even a tiny bit of pain, I’m even more anxious.. Right now the area around my nose feels hot.. and throbs.. Ah, I’m scared.. my head and gums hurt too... phew~ It feels like the swelling is getting worse... What should I do to minimize the swelling??? This is really a surgery I never want to have again.. It’s so hard and scary....
