Is This Swelling or a Permanent Hump Post Rhinoplasty?

hkstar
I am 10 wks post septorhinoplasty and turbinate reduction. This is my 3rd rhinoplasty. My nose profile was straight but I wanted it curved slightly and at 45 deg angles it looked as though I had a hump on the bridge. When the cast came off the profile was fine but one side still had a hump which I was told would subside. Now 10 weeks on and i'm very depressed as a hump has now appeared on the bridge.Ive been massaging twice daily. When I press on it still sore, turns white and feels squishy.
