Red Mark in the corner of right eye following rhinoplasty (3 months on) (Photo)

Question

This mark was a lot bigger in the early stages and so i feel it may just be swelling, but the fact it still hasn't completely healed and only in one eye is worrying. Although it does seem to be getting better slowly, my surgeon said it could be potential bone fragment from surgery. If so what should I do? The photo is at 1 month, I'm now at 3 months and it does seem to be better than in the photo. Thanks.

diagnosis is not just about looking at a photograph in giving an opinion but also involves physical examination. As such it is therefore impossible to give you an accurate idea of what is going on. If it's improving and it may well continue to do so you need to liaise with your surgeon.
