Bone-like Bumps in Bridge After Rhinoplasty

Kay In Montana
I had Rhinoplasty 3 weeks ago today to reduce a small hump in the bridge of my nose. However, since the cast came off a week after surgery, I noticed 2 bumps on both sides of my nose below my eyes on the bridge right where the bump was removed. Feels as if they are getting bigger. It feels as hard as bone! What is this, will it go away? Do I need filler injections? I need answers. Please help.
