Do I Have an Open Roof Deformity? (photo)

FakeBake
I'm a little over 3 weeks post op. I had a big hump removed & the nose narrowed a bit. The nose is feeling a little flat and there are sharp bony edges on each side of the nose. I can't feel a dent in the middle of the nose, but do feel dents on each side of the nose, behind the sharp edges. Profile & front looks good, front does not look wide, but when seen from angles it looks like there is still a hump. Do you think I have an open roof deformity? Or can this still correct itself?
