I have a bump and line in the middle of my nose after rhinoplasty. How did this happen and can it be fixed? (Photo)

ahosry
I had rhinoplasty about 4 months ago but I started noticing a bump and a horizontal line developing in the middle of my nose. This wasn't much initially because of the swelling I guess, but it became more obvious with time, especially when I look at the mirror... My doctor said he never saw something like this over his 25 years of experience and suggested that I massage my nose and bone and wait for a while... He mentioned filler too but I want to know what happened and what my options are.
