Still Not Breathing Comfortably Almost 2 Months Post-op Rhinoplasty?

newnosee
its been 2 months and icant breathe through my nose comfortably. I find if i clean it out COMPLETELY (Which takes FOREVER) then i can kind of breathe through it comfortably but this never lasts long since in a few hours its stuffed up again. and the mucus in my nose is clear but very sticky which makes it hard to completely clear out. is this normal? ive read on many websites that you should be breathng properly by 2 months for sure, but that doesnt seem to be the case with me.
