I'm now 10 days post op & had my cast removed 3 days ago. Breathing issue was fixed, the bridge of my nose was narrowed by breaking the bones (especially my left side), a small hump removed, & my tip raised. The bridge was built up a bit (right between eyebrows) using parts of my nose that he removed. When the cast was removed there were 2 hard bumps like bone on bridge next to the eyes. Makes profile view very strange looking. What could that be, how to solve the issue, & how long will it take?
