Rhinoplasty Swelling 6 Months Post Op

Spokane
I had a septo-rhinoplasty to fix deviated septum and bump on nose. I am happy with the change, however, I can feel firm yet soft swelling still on the bridge, mostly on the sides. From profile, lower down the nose it still looks like i have a hump, but again, it is a soft firm feeling, and my tip is still crooked, but my septum is completely straight. Will this swelling eventually diminish completely. I know that my nose will look great, but i am worried of permanent fullness/scar tissue.
