Is it normal to feel a bump on the upper bridge of the nose and upper sides of nose, but can't see the bumps, not visible?

Yes, it can be completely normal to feel bumps on the side of the nose, especially the upper portion of the nose.  They can be more prominent in certain patients.  Sometimes these come about because of previous trauma and/or surgery.  Sometimes, this is simply the natural configuration of your nose.  As long as they do not bother you, then you should be just fine!  Hope this answers you question.

at any stage during your recovery for nasal surgery it's possible  to feel things that you can't see.

This is very common. Especially in thicker skinned people there can be many irregularities that can be felt under the surface but not seen externally. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Yes, it is normal to feel bumps on the nose, even if they are not visible. Few people have perfectly smooth bones, and in particular the junction from the bones to the cartilage is always palpable. The cartilaginous parts of the nose normally have edges that one can feel, rather than being perfectly rounded. Many rhinoplasty patients will first start really feeling their nose as they are healing and start feeling "bumps" they never previously noticed, but were always present and normal.The most important things are the function of the nose (ability to breathe, smell, etc.) and the visible appearance.

Irregular shaped bones and cartilages on the dorsum of your nose can cause the irregularity that your feeling. If you have thin skin you can appreciate the anatomy better.

It is normal to feel small irregularities on the nose after rhinoplasty as long as they are not visible. As the swelling improves, the irregularities can be more prominent.

It is common to feel irregularities of the underlying bone and cartilage and not see them.If it concerns you,  I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon with extensive nasal
surgery experience who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
(ASAPS) or a facial plastic surgeon (ENT) that you trust and are comfortable
with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person.

Some palpable but not visible irregularities are fairly common. I wouldn't sweat it too much. If concerned, discuss it with your surgeon.

It seems as tho you have NOT had nasal surgery or any trauma to the nose.  It is within the normal range to have some irregularities to the bony anatomy.  There is no need to be concerned if they are not visible.  However, it the bumps enlarge or become visible or painful, you need to see your doctor

It is normal to feel the nasal bones on both sides. You also can have cartilage that is palpable on both sides. There is soft tissue over the structure of the nose that smooths the skin in your nose if you can't see the bumps.
