Why is my nose tilting after rhinoplasty? 1 month post-op. (photos)

Asked By:dmd296 in Morgantown, WV

It's been 1 month since I had open rhinoplasty for my bulbous nosetip and two weeks ago I noticed I had a hard bump on the right side of my nose tip. Then I noticed my nostrils were asymmetrical. My doctor can see what I'm talking about but it said it could still because of swelling. I know I have to be patient but Is it normal for a nose tip to slant as its healing?
