I have gone through a closed rhinoplasty 3 months ago , everything looked fine one week post op , however now i notice a bump on the left side of my nose , im sure its not swelling as it feels like bone and i have already had a bump in the same place before op . I want to fix it but im not sure if i need a revision rhino or it can be rasped under local anesthesia or a simple filler injection ?
