i had my Rhinoplasty about 3 months ago, ever since my surgery i feel like there is something stuck in 1 hole of my nose, and i cant seem to get it out. i tried neti potting and it didn't help, and more than 1 occasion i found piece of thread coming out of my nose, i am happy with the nose job but this feeling in my left nose really bothers me, any idea what it could be?

See your surgeon for followup if you suspect a problem

It is always a good idea to return to your surgeon for followup after Cosmetic Plastic Surgeries. If you feel something unusual in your nose, it is a good idea to see if there is something he/she needs to take care of.

I'm sorry, but I cannot see the inside of your nose on my screen. I suggest that you call your surgeon for an appointment to examine you. The good news is that you are "happy with the nose job".
