Is this bone bump something that can be rasped down? (Photo)

Asked By:kawaiilover in Scotts Valley, California

I had rhinoplasty a year ago. I have a bump on my bone on one side that is visible. I can also feel a bump on the other side too but it is in a different location, making it not really visible or bothersome. The bump on the one side bothers me and creates weird light reflections and a shadow underneath it in certain lighting. I'm worried this is my actual bone and rasping will just do more damage. My doctor said rasping could leave me with a dent but is willing to do it. Is it a good idea?
