Is It Normal to Have Tip Swelling Without Any Tip Work Done?
R83Apr 26, 2013
As of today I'm two and a half weeks post-op. I had a deviated septum repair with dorsal hump reduction, bilateral osteotomies, and narrowing of my lateral cartilages. I believe I had a closed procedure because I don't have any external incisions. I'm concerned because it seems as though most of the swelling has subsided except for in the tip. It's swollen enough that there is a large amt of asymmetry and a slight upward pull. Is it normal to have this tip swelling when I didn't have any tip work done?
