7 months post-op my nose has gotten bigger. I am anemic: does my low iron slow down the healing process or is it just swollen?

Hi so i got my rhinoplasty 7 months ago. My nose was broken since i was little so they had to fix that and made my nose slimmer. I got the surgery when I just turned 18 and I have been anemic since 14 years old I think. when they took my cast off my nose was really slim but a little swollen the surgeon said it was going to go down after 6 months. It has been 7 months but it just got bigger. I now have a bulbous nose. Does my low iron slow down the healing process or is it just swollen?
