Why is my nose suddenly swollen? (Photo)

Hello,It is impossible to determine what is causing your swelling. However, what you are describing isn't very normal. I suggest you consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon to see what the issue is and how to fix it.Best of luck,Deepak Dugar, MDScarless Rhinoplasty ExpertBeverly Hills, CA 90210

You may get better advice from a local rhinoplasty specialist, or facial plastic surgeon than your family physician may provide. When you see your physician, ask if an anti-staphlococcal antibiotic would be agreeable until you can see a specialist. Hope this helps, and wishing you well with your recovery. Dr Joseph 

Thank you for the question and photos! I believe it's too early to worry at this point. At 4 weeks post-op, you are likely to experience swelling, which is very common at this stage and may develop unevenly. It may take 6 to 12 months to completely resolve. In the meantime, you will likely see some contour irregularities. Be patient and give it time to resolve naturally. If you do experience discomfort or tenderness, however, be sure to alert your surgeon. 
An in-person exam with a board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to assess your needs and obtain expert medical advice. Best of luck!
