Bumps in Nose Bridge After Septoplasty and Rhinoplasty

twroxy29
I had Septoplasty and Rhinoplasty performed a month ago. I had a deviated septum that was blocking the right side of my nose. But now, I have a bump on the bridge of my nose (a bump I had before my surgery). What is this caused by, and will it go away on its own, or will they have to perform surgery again? My doctor gave me a steroid shot the other day. He says it takes up to 4 weeks to see results from the shot, but I am freaking out because it makes my nose look bad.
