1.5 Years After Rhinoplasty, Noticing Uneven Sides of Nasal Bone?

jkim1989
1.5 years ago, I had a bony hump removed from my bridge and also narrowed the width of my nasal bone. Since a few weeks ago, however, feeling my nose I noticed that the bridge and the sides of my nasal bridge were slightly uneven, some parts possibly growing out more and some parts indented maybe. I am not concerned if the rhinoplasty couldnt make it completely even, but is it possible my hump is growing back or my nose is re-widening? Is it possible I still have bone growth after 1.5 years?
