Cartilage sticking out through my nose - 3 months post-op.

Asked By:sighhh in New York, NY

Yeah long story short. I had a rhinoplasty, and I have cartilage sticking out through my nose inside my nostrils. I can feel it and even see it. It's white and it's definitely there. It's been 3 months since my rhino. What do I do? Why does this happen? Is it my surgeons fault?
