Is it possible for my bone callus to continue to grow after 7 years? (Photos)

dyseas76Jan 27, 2018
I got a nose fracture about 7 years ago with a picket ball that hit the left side of my nose with a strong force. I believe bone callus was produced durning my healing process and it has not gone away, and may never go away completely. The issue is that I have a lot of tenderness and every time anything barely hits or taps my bump, I feel like it continues to grow & become more apparent. Has my nose not completely healed or does the bone callus continue to grow?

The best way to remove the adhesive is with soap and water followed by rubbing alcohol on the skin. This should help remove the adhesive gently.

Thanks for your question - I would say you should be fine to return to work for Monday after reading about your job duties.  Other workers would see bruising and a splint if you have that on after surgery.  Best of luck!
