It’s two weeks op now and I’ve noticed since getting the splints removed that my septum is still deviated completely blocking my right nostril as it was before. Worried i wasted my time and pretty fustrated about it. It can’t be swelling because I can feel the curve and clearly can see it. I don’t have easy contact with my surgeon as it was done publicly, so have come here for any assistance. Thanks
