I had rhinoplasty 2 months ago and within the first month I had severe bleeding in my right nostril. My surgeon then silver nitrated it (i believe thats what its called) then we had no problems until a month later where I had to be rushed to emergency because my left nostril had even worse bleeding it was running down my throat and out my nose like a tap nonstop.
