After rhino 8 months ago my nose wont stop dripping. It’s been social embarrassing. If I’m eating it drips extra, resulting in me not eating out anymore. Also, I asked only for the nose to get closer to my face. The surgeon said I had to large nosestrils and to wide nose. He changed it much and it is now very thinand not straight.
