Last Night Whilst Yawning (Gently) my Nose Clicked? I Am 5 Days Post Open Rhinoplasty and Still Have my Cast on.

July 20, 2012
Asked By:lalafraser

My nose used to hurt whenever I smiled a little or yawned but now, since it made that click, it feels fine. I had open rhinoplasty which mostly concentrated on the tip but there was also some shaving down of the bridge (no bone breaking) and this is the area where I used to feel pain and where the "click" came from. I'm obviously happy that it no longer hurts but I'm concerned that something bad has happened to my nose. It didn't hurt when it clicked, it just felt like a slight movement.
