Hi. I had primary rhinoplasty 2 years ago and my nose pain has gotten worse since then. Arter the first 3 months, my nose started to have periods where it would get all swollen and red and it would hurt very bad. Now after 2 years it hurts every single night and I cant sleep because of it. The pain only got Worse and it feels like bones are cracking inside my nose and it gives me such a headache. I went to doctor and he told me it might be infection but i want more help this have ruined my life.
