I had a septorhinoplasty just under 3 weeks ago with the cast removed after 7 days. With every day that goes by I can see a bump forming on my bridge which is hard as bone. The rhinoplasty was to straighten my profile (before picture also attached). Im really nervous that the hard bone on my bridge will remain and my profile will no longer be straight. Im really hoping that it reduces (and I know I have to be patient) but it just seems to be getting more pronounced with each day.
Once my cast and tape were put on, one nostril apprearwd to be trapped under it, holding the nostril up at a different angle/shape. Now that the cast is off, there's little dent in the tip. It's one month post op- the tip is still pretty lifted in my opinion- will this dent and unevenness from the bandages settle out as swelling goes down?
Hello, I did septo/rhinoplasty about 2 weeks ago. My cast was removed about a week after. The bridge of my nose was smooth and straight, however when I visited my surgeon a week later, he began to touch the nose and the tip to make sure everything was the way it was supposed to be but later that day I noticed a slight bump appear! I'm not sure if it's because he touched/pinched the bridge while checking which caused swelling or if my bump is coming back!!!!
My cast was removed 2 weeks after my surgery because he told me that the longer, the straighter the nose. He then gave me this tape thing that I was told to apply for a month post-op daily on my nose. It's been about 10 days since I'm applying this tape and he told me it's supposed to restrict further swelling? I had an event coming up so I asked him if it's ok t remove it for a day, he said it was fine but when i did remove it, after some hrs i noticed my nostrils went in different directions?
I had a deviated septum & had rhino-septoplasty 2 wks ago. After the cast was taken off on day 6, the nose looked great. Some 4 days later it was very crooked like b4. My surgeon admitted it had moved back into the "old" position. He pushed it back using his hand and I was told to tape it at night. Now the question, with my 10k, 2 wks of pain and time, my results will now rely on a roll of tape? Will this work? Is Splint or re-casting more reliable than tape b4 its too late? Need help. Thanks
