Scar tissue or swelling 2 years later... will this ever go?

Angels2000
I had surgery 2 years andd 2 months ago, and i am still getting swelling side walls and supra tip, i am having regular steroid injections into the nose tha removes the swelling. Can somebody tell me if this is swelling this far on from surgery or is it scar tissue? The steroid injections remove the swelling and i am happy for about 2-3 months and is back again. I have thick skin, my dad indian and my mum english. Any help appreciated. I dont want to keep having steroid injections forever.
