Breathing Issues 6 Weeks After Revision Rhino/septoplasty?

missnose
I had a revision rhinoplasty/septoplasty 6 weeks ago. I still cannot breathe normally. My bridge feels very constricted and I can only feel very little air getting through. I'm scheduled to see my surgeon in a couple of weeks. Is this normal? Also visually, my bridge is very pinched looking just below the nasal bones. I think was reduced TOO much in size from it's original state and this might be causing airway problems.
