Asked By:tauris in New York, NY

I got a rhinoplasty 6 weeks ago and today I yawned but i tried not to open my mouth and the i felt a tug on my right side of my nose and my nose was stuffy then I felt like my airway on my right side opened but I feel like I expanded my right nostril is that possible? Or am I being paranoid?
