How long does swelling last after septorhinoplasty?

March 22, 2014
Asked By:sarah718 in Pennsylvania, PA

I had a septorhinoplasty done 5 weeks ago. My nose still looks wide and swollen. I also have a round bumps on the left and right side of my nose. Is the bump means it's just swollen in that area? 5 weeks after I still have stitches on the left side of the nostril, 1 of the stitch looks blue and the other one is the dissolvable stitch. What does the blue stitch means? Should I worry? I have a wedding to go in 2 weeks, will the bump on the sides will go down by then? I just want my nose look good.
