I had a septo rhinoplasty last summer (July 2021). I had a deviated septum to the right. Over 1 year on I have a hard bump on the right hand side of my nose, making my nose look asymmetrical. This bump effects my breathing as it’s blocking part of my nostial internally. Do I need a second rhinoplasty or can this be fixed another way? If I need a revision should my surgeon be responsible or should I go elsewhere?
