Swollen nose tip. What can be the cause?

Maya20170Aug 28, 2017

For unknow reason my nose tip starts to swell. It takes nearly the whole day to go back to normal. I noticed If i don't take a shower, the swelling improve, but if i take a shower it stays swollen. Sometimes I see small clear drops, like water, on my nose tip when the swelling goes down. I saw 5 dermatologists with no help they didnt even saw any skin problem. What can be the cause ? Can palstic surgeron help better than dermatologists ? Thanks.

The bridge of your nose can be built up and strengthened with cartilage grafts from either your ribs or ears. The bulbous tip can be thinned down and the nostrils narrowed and refined. You will need to find a facial plastic surgeon who is expert in ethnic rhinoplasty to be sure you get a result...
