Pain after rhinoplasty
Mild pain and numbness is not uncommon after a rhinoplasty procedure and may be even more common after a revision procedure. Increasing pain, abnormal swelling or drainage would be more serious concerns.

Pain after rhinoplasty
There are a great number of tiny nerves in the nose that are affected by surgery. As nerves recovery from surgery and as scar tissues matures and stretches and changes it is very common to have "twinges". These can last up to two years, but should slowly improve. Massage may help. Worsening pain, or pain associated with swelling or other physical change needs to be evaluated by your surgeon.
