February 25, 2014

i got a rhinoplasty/septoplasty about 10 days ago, i got my cast removed and my nose cleaned,but now i notice there is this kinda bump inside my nose (right side) and looks bloody, could it be an infection, or is this just normal to happen ? when i clean my nose i got a lot of blood crust followed by a brown sticky mucus, is this normal ?also the right side of my nose seems to feel more constipated (by the way the camera inverts the image so it looks like is the left nose, but its the right one)
