October 16, 2010
Asked By:lindsayforbes in england

Hello,I had open rhino 3 weeks ago to narrow the upper 1/3 nasal 'bones',shaving a slight hump and the tip tweaked for refinement, since the swelling is going down it's now apparent that the upper 1/3 portion is deviating to one side making it look crooked (begining to look like a donkeys hind leg)the opposite side towards the tip is more swollen.my nose was straight pre op.uneven swelling?or should I be concerned? Thankyou!
