I am one month post rhinoplasty and since the third week this annoying flesh like lump appeared in my left nostril. What is it?

I have done some research and the common consensus is that it might be "spitting suture" which is a complication some might experience from absorbable sutures. Does mine look like it's that? Does it go away on its own or do I need to have it removed? My surgeon is away for 10 days so I don't know what to do and I would appreciate your input. Thanks
