5 years post op & columella feels weird after I picked my nose, & lips look flatter - unsure what to do?

It’s been 5 years since my rhinoplasty surgery and the other day I picked my nose (not even violently, just a little bit) and my columnella feels weird and it’s like I popped something out of place. My lips look different, too. I know that there are muscles (or something like that) holding it to the lips and my philtrum area doesn’t feel as tight anymore. My lips look flatter!! I’m so distressed and unsure of what to do!
