Had rhinoplasty done 7 days ago. It seems like I have a hard glue like substance in my nose? (photo)

The area may be a nasal splint or crusting commonly seen after nasal surgery... I would see your rhinoplasty surgeon in the postoperative period.

Hi there, I think you might be looking at a splint inside the nose, but it is hard to tell from the photo. My recommendation is that you call your doctor's office for guidance. Be careful when you clean the nose as it is still very early in the healing process. Good luck

Since you are only 1 week out from your rhinoplasty surgery, it is best to go back to see your operative surgeon.

Hello and thank you for your question. It is not possible to be sure without examining you but it is likely to be dried mucus. You should not try to take it out yourself and if there are ongoing concerns, please consult your surgeon.

Do not try to remove the substance in your nose.  Without an exam, online consultants cannot confirm the substance.  Contact your surgeon for your answer.
