Asked By:SurvivingTbotch in San Francisco, CA

My tip is very cold all the time (many months post rhinoplasty/shawing off hump and bone that I did not want but plastic surgeon did illegaly.) When is the circulation coming back? Winter is coming and I fear the worst that my nose tip will die, I'm enthusiastic outdoor person even when it is as low as -4 F
