13 Weeks Post Rhinoplasty Swelling?

July 6, 2012
Asked By:H, UK in United Kingdom

I am 13 weeks post op closed rhinoplasty for a hump on the bridge of nose. One side of my bridge (left side) appears to be taking longer to settle down than the other. Is it possible for swelling to feel softer to the touch at certain times of the day than others? Sometimes the area of concern feels reasonably firm then others it feels softer and slightly bouncy to touch. How long is "swelling" like this likely to persist, if it is swelling? Thanks!
