Swollen on Either Side of my Nose (photo)

April 2, 2012
Asked By:glendale60 in Glendale, AZ

My surgery was August 2011 so it is now going on 8 months after surgery. I had a deviated septum fixed and a small bump on my nose removed. I had closed nose surgery. The side view of my nose looks good but I feel like from the front the two sides look swollen out on either side of my nose. I even feel what seems like the bone on my left side of my nose and it makes my nose not look straight. Could this still be swollen? Could this be because my septum was bent on that side?
