Is this yellow dry crust/mucus that I get every day normal, specially in the morning at 9 month post-op? (photos)

Hi W,You should see your rhinoplasty surgeon for treatment.  You will likely need oral and topical antibiotics.  Good luck and be well. Dr. P

Dear willy24although crusting in the early post rhinoplasty period is common, it is unusual at 9 months after surgery. Although you should discuss with your surgeon, I would consider treatment with nasal saline spray, humidifier and a month course of nasal steroid spray to break the inflammatory cycle.

Dear willy24, No this is not normal and you need to be treated by your surgeon right away. First and foremost a saline spray should be ordered to help with the dryness. You may need topical and oral antibiotics, and steroid spray?? this will be determined at examination. If your surgeon continues to tell you this is normal I suggest a second opinion.
