Is It Useful to Have a Steroid Injection 6 Months After Rhinoplasty?
Hello, I had a rhinoplasty surgery 6 months ago. A hematoma formed in my nose and it was emptied in the first week. In the following weeks, I had nasal abscess and nosebleed. There was a risk of adhesions, so a tampon was inserted again. After the tampon, my face was very swollen and it turned out to be a severe infection. With antibiotics and needles We treated the infection and it went away. Now I have a small hole in my septum. I am not at all happy with my nose and have concerns about steroid injection. My doctor said I could have a revision rhinoplasty but he also informed me that all these risks are valid. Months passed. Sometimes I bleed lightly because of the hole in my septum (when I don't apply cream and often when I don't wash). Do you think I have edema in my nose now, should I have an injection or should I consider surgery again? Is there a possibility that the needle will reduce the swelling in my nose after all this?
