Strange lump inside nostril. Please help!

Fierce4180
I'm currently 7 months post rhinoplasty, but for the past week or so I've developed this strange white bump on my right nostril. It is white and hurts to the touch. I am able to breathe well but I've noticed it's gotten bigger. What do you think this might be or the reason why? Should I be concerned? I've also noticed my tip is changing some days it looks fuller than other days. Thank you!
