Why can't I breathe after getting a rhinoplasty 10 months ago?

March 27, 2022
Asked By:starsandoceansxo in New York, NY

It's been 10 months since I received a rhinoplasty. I still can't breathe fully through my nostrils and find myself taking big gasps of air every other moment. It's overwhelming. It just feels like it's stuffed but I have no mucus! I do feel I can breathe better when I'm laying down, getting ready to sleep. I can't go to my surgeon because he's in a different county. What are some reasons that's causing my breathing difficulties?
