Is my nose rotting from not being healed properly after rhinoplasty?

Asked By:Hyacinthe17 in Austin, TX

I recently got rhinoplasty a week ago from today. I had my turbinates ballooned to help me breathe & nasal hump reduction. I have been a bit hard on my nose as its recovering and that's my fault, but today I blew my nose a little too roughly and I noticed that the skin on my nose where the previous hump was, lifted as I blew. I would blow my nose and the skin would almost inflate a little. I could feel and see it in the mirror when I blew. Could this mean my skin could rot? I'm very scared, help!
