Hello , i had a Rhinoplasty a month ago and i have noticed that i have a hard ball inside my left nostril just under the columella like shown in the picture. It feels hard but at the same time when i massage like the dr. said it becomes a little softer. My doctor said that we cannot define what is it exactly only until most of the swollow is gone (4-6 months) I’m afraid that it’s a inclined cartilage or the implant that he put in there is out of the way.
Answer: Recovery after Rhinoplasty It is possible that you are feeling a graft of cartilage or the end of your nasal septum. That said, you shouldn't concern yourself with it at this point in time. It is way too early to scrutinize your nose from all angles as your nose will continue to change and evolve over many more months. Focus on taking good care of your mind and body. If over time the issue does not resolve then it can be addressed with a minor corrective procedure. My best.

Answer: Post-op Rhinoplasty Hi and thank you for your question. It's too early to say and jump into conclusions. Postoperatively, after a rhinoplasty, can take up to a year to heal. Your nose is still swollen and it's a matter of waiting till the swelling goes down. I suggest you follow up with your doctor in a few months as indicated.

Answer: Bump inside nostril Great question! At 1 month it is difficult to tell what is causing this, especially when the characteristics change during massage. It could be something as simple as inflammation around a suture or something more complex but only time will tell. Continue your followup appointment to see if it improves over time.

Answer: Recovery after Rhinoplasty You need to have patience with your body as it begins to heal. The skin, bone and cartilage are all traumatized during surgery. Inflammation (swelling) is the normal response and will help your nose to heal and look beautiful in the end. Right now, concentrate on other things you like to do and let your nose and under eyes take the time to heal. It can take up a year for your final results. I hope this helps.
