Asked By:kris8 in UK

I want to ask you, after 6 months my tip is bigger than before surgery (especially in the morning, throug the day it gets smaller, but stil its round and i feel it is swallen). My bone was not touched. Is it really swelling, is there possibility my tip will stay that big? : I have the feeling there is one week lass swelling the other more (at 6 month). (During operation doctor streighten the septum and cut cartilage? to make my tip lass hanging (push it back), without changing shape and angle.
