6 months post septoplasty and the inside of my nose is lumpy. Is this normal?

t112233
I had a septoplasty done about 6 months ago. It was the worst pain I have ever endured. The surgeon had no idea that I had bad bone spurs until he got started with the surgery. Since the surgery, the inside of my nose is kind of lumpy. One side it curves outward. The other side is thicker where it meets my face but then dips down into a slope and comes back out. I was wondering if this is normal after having surgery done. I have to dig out boogers that get caught. Is this normal?
