I had the stitches removed two days ago and I am afraid the doctor left a piece of thread inside the scar tissue.

Thanks for the question. The answer is no if you wait at least 2-4 months. Then, if you talk to your surgeon and get approval, there is no obstacle to having a piercing. I wish you all the best.
Usually we have to take a wedge out of the nostril base to give a result that you would be satisfied with. See an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon for a second opinion.
