Swelling in Bridge Feels Like an Air Bubble Almost? (photo)

Asked By:izzeariel

I had a rhinoplasty a week and a half ago, the healing is going great I have little swelling or bruising. The only swelling seems to be on the bridge of my nose. When I touch it, it almost feels like there is a pocket of air beneath the skin. Is this a normal feeling? When I blow my nose very gently it seems to expand with air to an extent. Not a large amount but a little. I am calling my doctor tomorrow. But I want to be able to sleep without overthinking all the crazy possibilities. Any idea?
