I hear a very slight crackling/crunchy sound as if something has cracked whenever I touch my nose. Is this normal?

I am 10 days post-op (revision) and whenever I apply any lotion, toner, etc or even touch my nose (VERY gently- hardly any pressure) I hear a very slight crackling/crunchy sound as if something has cracked. For the most part the sound isnt in relation to a particular spot seems to happen most places...Especially right in between my eyes. I dont remember this happening last time. Is everything ok?! Have I moved something?
