Asked By:ames8777 in Nv

I am on day 11 post up and I had an open rhinoplasty. My columella is healing fine however just inside my nostril the incisions on both sides seems to be scabbing over and it smells odd. Is it infected? What do I do if that's infected ? Can I use Neosporin? I admit that I did use it before but I don't think it's helping.. :(
