What to Do with Scabs Inside the Nostrils After Rhinoplasty?

June 8, 2009
Asked By:

I had Rhinoplasty one month ago. I have scabs on the inside of my nostrils and they are very uncomfortable. I was told to use peroxide and q-tips but it does not help. I feel stuffy because the scabs make it hard to breath. Is this normal?
