Could my breathing issues be due to collapsed nostrils? 6 months post op (photos)

July 14, 2024
Asked By:L.f.d in Soest, Utrecht, Nederland

nose job 6 months ago. Now after 6 months I have trouble breathing, through one nostril. I have contacted my surgeon and he is not taking me seriously. He says I don't have a collapsed nostril. I feel like they just wanted my money. My nostril closes when I inhale. At the front of the nostril and on the side of my nose tip slightly above the nostril, my nose skin folds inwards. While breathing in I hear a heavy and wheezing sound through my nose. Please let me know if this collapsed
