Dear Babygirl303,
At about 4 months post surgery, you should have reached an advanced placed in your recovery.
Nonetheless, I recommend that you consult with your surgeon although there is not visible damage.
Best of luck to you.

Cracking/Crunchy Noise Post Rhinoplasty
It is very unlikely that you did any harm 15 weeks after your rhinoplasty. Check with your surgeon if this continues or you notice any changes in appearance or nasal breathing.

Don't Worry About The Crunchy Noise You Heard
It sure doesn't sound like anything to be concerned about. It may have been a little bit of scar tissue that softened. Without being really aggressive there is almost nothing you can do 15 weeks after a rhinoplasty to injure it. Rest easy.
