Asked By:saints1223 in Dallas, TX

I also feel like my radix is much bigger than before surgery. Had surgery on July 17, 2014. I asked this question a few weeks after surgery & was told to allow more time but now that I am almost at 2 months post op, I am getting more concerned. I have a bump/hard edge on the side of my nose that won't seem to go away.I know he did some rasping in that area & my doctor says it's probably swelling but it feels pretty hard & isn't going away. I don't go back to see him for another 5 weeks. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. My radix is also a concern.
