10.5 month post op, the tip is swollen. I did not use a cast & I'm a regular smoker & drinker. Does this prolonged my healing?

i am about 10.5 months post-opbut tip is still swelling. In the am especially my tip is pretty stiff and softens through the day and by the end of it my nose looks normalish (but still a bit puffy). at 4-5 mon my tip was smaller and defined but i had 2 dents near the tip area.doc injected aqua mid into one side and kind of "cut"(?) through the other (am not sure what he did my eyes were closed and it was really painful like he was cutting/ injecting my nose multiple times).
