Two days ago I started to feel my nose heavier than before. I feel weird sensation in my nose, it's not pain but more of a tingling, numb, paresthesia feeling. it also feels like I have some pressure on top of my nose. I constantly feel my nose. I can live with it, but I'm afraid it's not supposed to feel like that. Can you tell me if that's normal? I asked my surgent and he told me that strange feeling can happen, but he wasn't patient enough to hear exactly how what I feel so I'm not sure...
