I had open rhino 15mago. 6 weeks later i saw a hard lump on the left/front of my bridge. Now the swelling has reduced the lump is very obvious, in some lights you can clearly see the shape of the lump under my skin. At my year review my surgeon seemed unconcerned & didn't seem to be able to say what it was or what had caused it. His only possible suggestion was another open procedure however its likely i'll have to pay the full fee again. Might it resolve on it's own?
