Rhinoplasty/septoplasty 31 hrs Post Operation question.?

This is the 32nd hour following my rhino/septoplasty surgery. I just have a couple of question I'd like to ask. 1) The tip of my nose is very swollen. I understand that this is normal. But I just want reassurance from someone who's been there. 2) The area between my upper lip and the base of my nose and pretty swollen as well. Just wanna make sure that it's normal.

- Except that, I have very little swelling/bruising around the eyes and the very little bleeding into the gauze. Just killing time, trying to make sure that all is going right. Thanks.

Plz disregard the typos. Thanks.

The swelling is normal. I had a lot more bruising and pain.
Everything sounds like it is progressing along nicely. Just wait til the bandages are removed and you will be pleased.
