Nose Whistling and Stuffiness After Revision Rhinoplasty

April 4, 2009
Asked By:chicago67 in Illinois

I recently had a revision rhinplasty in a prestigious hospital in Chicago. At 7 weeks after surgery, I feel as though I have a stuffy feeling in my nose, and when I take a deep breath, my nose has a whistling sound. Am I too early in the process yet, or should I be more concerned with this issue? Please help, thank you.
