Asked By:loriborders in Sacramento, CA

I had Rhinoplasty/Septoplasty 9 months ago and since about 4 months ago I been dealing with dryness inside my nose every day. I feel a lot of discomfort inside my nose, really stiff inside and dry. I been having crust too. sometimes I avoid blowing my nose because I feel discomfort after blowing. I have checked with my surgeon and he said that my nose is healing ok, to not worry about. but why I am still having dryness? I been told that after 3 month you shouldn't have any dryness or issues.
