3 months post a Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty, a lot of dry mucous and small blood spotting in nose.

Asked By:rachbakes in Melbourne, FL

I had my rhinoplasty procedure around near 3 months ago, went extremely well, can now breathe perfectly, however alive been having excessive days of dry mucous developing every morning and the odd blood deep inside. The blood isn't leaking out i just notice it when I'm doing my saline rinse which although my surgeon suggested I don't really need to use anymore i still use to help clean out the mucous. Just curious is it normal to have so much mucous at this stage and also the blood?
