When I woke up from my open rhinoplasty I had a bit of blood come from he bit between my eyes out of the cast. At the time I thought it had maybe come from my eyes or something and thought nothing of it. I am now back home and a bit more blood has come from there and I am worried because surely there shouldn't be any opening from there? Why is there blood coming out of this part ? Is it ok? I thought there would only be an incision at the bottom of my nose so why is there blood so high up?!
