Hello, I received a revision rhinoplasty last year. I had a silicon implant inserted to augment the bridge. For the past 3 days, the nasal bridge has been visibly red and sore to the touch. I was sick a few days prior and had an instance of vomiting. I am wondering if the complication could be a result of that. If this appears to be a silicone infection, what are my options? Thank you in advance.
