Bloody, fleshy lump in nostril after rhinoplasty. Is this normal? (Photo)

catty21
I am 18 days post rhinoplasty and have a fleshy lump inside one of my nostrils where my internal dissolvable stitches are. It is not causing any blood to come out of my nostril but looks to be bloody and is quite painful / uncomfortable and feels like it is obstructing the air flow in the nostril. Should I be concerned or is this normal and will resolve itself? Thanks in advance
