Phantom bad smell and numbness in nose years after rhinoplasty?

I had a nose job done in 2017 at the age of 17. Back then I experienced some bad smell in my nose, which I was told is normal. However, every once in a while, very rarely, I feel the same type of smell very faintly. I don't know if this is possible. Maybe it's psychological. Also, the tip of my nose never stopped feeling weird, kind of numb. I can defiately feel it when I touch it, but it's not like touching any other part of my skin. Does this mean the surgery was somehow done improperly?
