Trouble breathing on right side 2 years after rhinoplasty (Photos)

August 26, 2024
Asked By:Modest505531

I had my nose done two years ago. Initially after my surgery, I had issues breathing from the right side of my nose. My doctor said there was lot more swelling on that side. Two years in, I am still having trouble breathing from the right side. I constantly feel congested as if something is stuck. Whenever I blow my nose, hard, there is blood. When I lie on my left side and use decongestants there’s rare relief. When I take a deep breath my nostril caves in because it’s always congested.

Andrew Miller, MD says:

It is possible to change the shape of your nose, but not necessarily all the way back to what you used to have. A graft can be used to raise your nasal bridge. The tip can be rotated down some, but that is the most difficult part of the procedure. The tip can be widened as well. Be sure to see a...
