Asked By:Rob76 in Manchester, GA

I had open rhinoplasty 10 weeks ago to remove a bump and to reduce the overall size of my nose. 10 weeks on post swelling the bump is still visible. Also this area is very painful, for example when I dry my hair or shower the air/ water hurts that particular area. Also I cannot blow my nose, the action of pinching the nostrils together is very painful. Is this normal after 10 weeks?
