So I just had a Rhinoplasty about 4 months ago, I had it done on June 13, and I realized that a small bump started growing on one side of my nose and the doctor mentioned it was fibrosis? Or something like that and it has grown more over the past months and she said to massage it but that didn’t work. I need to know how can this be fixed ? Will I need another surgery?

Hi Sara,No worries about the second hand marijuana smoke causing any problem with your post op nose. You should make sure that your Oreo cookies and fudge brownies are locked up securely should your neighbors visit. Good luck and be well.Dr. P
Hi @erryhospel! I recommend that my patients resume exercise 3 weeks post op. My biggest advice is to listen to your body. If you notice increased swelling after yoga or any physical activity, I would avoid those exercises and ease your way into your routine. Best of luck!
Hi @Pita Lynn! Considering you are only 1 month post op, you are very early in the recovery process and you are still swollen. Swelling can last up to 1 year post op. Best of luck to you!
