---- " This is my day-2 review of rhinoplasty, continuing from yesterday~

# I’ve entered the second day.. Starting last night, the area where they harvested the ear cartilage began throbbing like crazy, so I had a horrible night. I took two painkillers before sleeping, but I don’t even know how many times I woke up.. When I woke up in the morning, the ear pain had calmed down a bit, but the bruising under my eyes had changed from light green to red/purple. The swelling itself is similar to yesterday, though it also seems a little more swollen.. The buttock where I got the antibiotic injection is swollen too, so I can’t even think about wearing jeans -_-; ## Still, yesterday I was afraid it would hurt, so I went to sleep without even brushing my teeth, but today I wiped off the nosebleed that had flowed overnight with a wet towel and brushed my teeth too, and there wasn’t any real problem. It’s very slight, but it’s better than yesterday ^^ Today I went to the hospital, had the gauze that was inside my nose removed, had a little disinfection done, and came back~ There were lots of posts saying it hurts terribly when they remove what’s in the nose, so I was really scared, but maybe because I only had disinfection done, it didn’t hurt except for the stinging during disinfection~ Every surgery seems to be different, so please don’t get scared in advance ^^: ### Once the gauze that had been tightly blocking my nose was removed, it felt a little refreshing. And they also removed the tapes attached to my ear, but they said they’ll remove the cotton blocking the ear canal next time~ Even after coming home, my nose has still been bleeding a little at a time~ Compared to yesterday, it’s nothing, but.. they said because my nasal bone was involved, I would bleed a lot. I wipe it occasionally, but it’s much, much more comfortable than yesterday.. They told me to do cold compresses diligently, so I’m doing them once every 3-4 hours, but if anyone knows what amount is appropriate, please let me know~ According to the nurse, tonight will be when I swell the most, and from tomorrow morning the swelling and bruising will gradually go down.. My boyfriend keeps whining so much that, swelling aside, I’m focusing on getting rid of the bruises~ (If anyone knows a special remedy for bruises, please reply ^^) #### Well.. nothing much changed today, so there isn’t a lot to write in the review. The area under my eyes is bruised red and swollen, so I still look like a monster. The pig nose I’m worried about is still the same too.. And my nostrils are severely uneven, but I believe that once the cast is removed and the swelling goes down, they’ll go back.. Since I’m taking it easy mentally, it’s bearable enough~ There are people who have all their teeth exposed and put back in, so compared with that, this much is nothing.. ^^: My next appointment is in 3 days, and I wonder if that’s when they’ll remove the cast placed over my nose~ By then, will the swelling have gone down to some extent? I really miss the days when I looked human
