I Can Feel Bone Poking out Inside my Nostril, Can That be Fixed in Revision Rhinoplasty?

Lake Charles LA
I'm due to have revision rhinoplasty Tuesday and live out of town so I'm not able to see my de again before. I have bad bossae that are being corrected.It isworse on the right side and I have always felt like I have something in my right nostril.Today I felt up there and I swear I can feel bone/cartilage poking out on in my nostril!! Not on the side of the septum but the part that feels out?How did that happen? Will my surgeon see this when he cuts it open or should I call him?Can that be fixed?
