How to reduce the swelling after a Nose Job

My nose job was a little over a week ago. The swelling is horrible and my nose looks enormous. I know the swelling will eventually get better but I have to go back to work in a few days and I’m very embarrassed. Is there anything I can do before then to minimize the swelling so that it’s not so obvious that I’ve had surgery?
 
You should see your surgeon to make sure everything is OK and you don't have an infection or fluid collection.  Sleeping with your head up on a few pillows helps.  Decreasing salt intake helps.  Avoiding exercise to prevent your blood pressure and heart rate increasing helps.  Avoiding plane flights helps. Avoiding sun and heat helps.  A short course of oral steroids may also be beneficial but there are always risks associated with oral steroids.  Taping of the nose may also help.  See your doctor and see what he says.  Good luck.
