Is this a bony spur that has grown right after rhinoplasty. What can I do? Also will my nose remain crooked? (Photo)

I underwent rhinoplasty a month and a half ago. My cast was removed 8 days post op and I noticed a small hard lump on the left side of my bridge where the hump had been removed. Since the swelling has subsided it has become extremely noticeable and perhaps larger. My side profile even no longer shows a smooth slope since the swelling went down. The lump feels as hard as bone. I am visiting my surgeon in a week. He claims it'll go away on its own. My nose also goes very crooked when I smile.
