Split Nostrils Post Rhinoplasty - causes/solutions? (Photos)

I got a septorhinoplasty done in May 2024, the table photos looked great, especially the nostrils. I then had stents put in as usual as well as a cast and nostril retainer. Was in excruciating pain the first week despite pain meds which was not the case with any other patients I had talked to which I thought was a bit weird. At one week, I went in to get cast off and stents out, and second photo was how my nose looked. The tops of my nostrils were completely split open and looked awful. I was alone during all this and due to the pain, had not been eating/drinking much and so I was honestly busy trying not to pass out during this cast removal & was scared to even ask about the nostrils. It is now over 6 months post-op and they have closed a bit but when smiling that slit/pig shape shows as well as scarring from the opening. I cannot find anyone online ANYWHERE that has had this issue and I just have no idea what could have caused this. I have a possible ehlers danlos condition and have considered that being a cause?? Would also like to know what I could do in the future to get nostrils back to a more rounded shape.
