What can I do to correct the right side wall of my nose? 1 year post op and I have breathing issues / bone sticks out (photo)

Asked By:n373203 in Scotland, United Kingdom

I had rhinoplasty a year ago and one side wall of the nose (my right but looks left on the photo) you can see the bone raised and it casts a shadow. I can feel the bone and it sticks out width wise towards my check. It sticks out past the tip width of my nose. Is there anything that can be done to correct this? I also can’t breathe now out of the right hand nostril and I had no problem before the op. I had a dorsal hump removed.
