Postoperative care:

1. After the operation, cold compress should be applied to the nasal alar part as suggested by the doctor, but remember to move gently to avoid unnecessary damage to the operation part. At the same time, it is recommended to choose a good environment with smooth air for rest after surgery to promote faster wound healing.

2. Because the operation is to narrow the nasal wing through surgery, the patient will feel pain after the operation. If the patient is within the tolerance range, he/she should not drink pain relieving drugs to avoid stimulating the wound bleeding.

3. Do not touch the nasal alar directly after the operation, and do not wash your face before removing the suture, so as to prevent the wound from touching water and causing infection.

4. Some antibiotics can be properly taken after surgery to prevent infection, but at least 3-5 days should be taken.
