I had a rhinoplasty when I was 13. It was a complete disaster and considered a “botched nose job.” This doctor went out of business shortly after. Now I’m 34 and I’ve developed what I thought was a year long pimple on the tip of my nose. one day I had enough and tried to “pop” or pull it out. It hurt so bad and as I pulled, I found it was a blue string. It’s very blue and incredibly painful. I cannot remove it. Is this some remnant of my surgery?
