Hi, I am 6 weeks post revision rhinoplasty and I seem to have developed a round hard lump on the side of the bridge of my nose? Please could you let me know what this is. I have been in touch with my surgeon and he has said to massage my nose firmly from the top of the bridge down to the tip of my nose. I have been doing this for the past week or so and it seems to have made the lump grow. Please could you let me know if these bumps go over time?

Five weeks post surgery is still very early for you to judge the results of your surgery and you wait about one year before assessing the shape and size - even longer with revisions
Correcting a crooked bridge with closed rhinoplasty is possible but depends on the severity of the problem. the open approach is better in more complex scenarios
