Asked By:Nino777 in Sareki, Imereti, Georgia

Hello. It has been 6 months since my rhinoplasty and my left nostril still gets irritated easily on a septum side. Today I carried something that was a liitle heavy( nothing too much), and later I found some blood stains on a q-tip and my septum was red and little bloody when I looked inside. Is this something I should be worried about? Why are my blood vessels so fragile? P.S This only happens to my left nostril.
