On the day of surgery, there will be a small amount of bloody fluid coming out of the surgical incision inside the nose, blood crusts forming on the edges of the nostrils, and mild swelling of the tip and dorsum of the nose. The pain in the nose and face has basically disappeared in 2-3 days after the operation, but the swelling will become more and more obvious, and the swelling around the eyes, face and other parts of the face is very strong, and the outline of the external nose shape is not clear. 3-6 days after surgery, swelling gradually subside, the color of the bruises around the eyes gradually change from red to yellow, the tip of the nose and the back of the nose still have pressure pain, such as conjunctival bruises, at this time the bruises basically disappeared.
