Have you seen this redness/itchiness around nostrils after rhinoplasty? (Photos)

Asked By:nancy7

It’s been 2.5 post open rhinoplasty and about a week ago my nostrils & columella started developing redness, itchiness and irritated. I saw my surgeon 3 days ago and he prescribed me clindamycin antibiotic along with triamcinolone cream. I was just wondering if anyone has ever seen or experienced this post rhinoplasty? Is this an allergy? Could this be an infection? I’m highly concerned and worried that this will effect my overall results... Thankyou
