I had surgery in August. 6 months later I have scar tissue inside my nose and under the bridge, the bridge tissue has caused a lump. My doc recommended massage. How do I do this? In one direction? Circular rub? Please help.
Answer: Massage can help Massage helps break down scar tissue through cross-fiber friction and can be very helpful. However the direction and firmness of massage varies significantly depending on the area and goal. You really would be best served to visit your surgeon to clarify, or even call, and they will be able to direct you specifically. Good luck with your recovery!
