Rhinoplasty a wk ago.. Right nostril noticibly bigger.. Nose is numb besides the nostril.. can the nostril still be considered swollen if i can feel me poking it? worried itll stay like that forever =(
I'm quite sure something doesn't have to be numb to be swollen. And after a week, you will still be somewhat swollen. If you're worried about this, you should contact your plastic surgeon and ask what he or she thinks about your nostril. A photo would also be really helpful for us to visualize what you're describing.
