Asked By:ac0026 in Melbourne, FL

broke my nose 11/15,had open septorhino 12/15.there were complications bc displaced bone fragments.I am 3 weeks post op.I know that swelling will take 1yr to subside but I am nervous about the asymmetry of my nose.I feel like front on it looks totally crooked and botched(nostrils/nose)Do you think this will resolve?I worry that it will not appear as defined as I want.There are lumps on the bridge of my nose near my eyes, which I know is bone.Will this settle or is this likely to stay put?Thanks
