I am 160 days (just over 5 months) post and I still have quite a swelling on sides of my nose and the tip. Shall I be concerned?

It was better couple of weeks ago, but I had few days when I drunk some red wine (I'd say two glasses of wine for 5 days) and my nose got bigger and I've got more swelling especially around tip. is out possible that my nose reacts to red wine? Also I noticed when I clean (blow) my nose in the morning I see some red blood clot like things. Shall I be concerned? No alcohol for me until healing process ends?
