I had an open rhinoplasty 6 months ago and I am happy with the way my nose looks from the side, but from the front you can see a pimple-shaped lump on the bridge of my nose. I can definitely feel a hard lump (that isn’t a spot). However, when I tape my nose at night, in the morning the lump feels smaller and grows throughout the day. Also note that I can feel a slight dip just above the bump on the bridge. Will this go away? I’m very upset and self conscious about it. Thanks
