Hello. I had surgery to fix a broken nose that happened years ago. I am still experiencing some fluctuating swelling especially in the tip and its more noticeable first thing in the morning, and when I exercise. It even feels weird sometimes in morning and while working out. There are points when I like the way it looks, but like I mentioned it fluctuated. I am coming up on 2 years post op this august and am wondering if this is normal and if the swelling and weird feelings will go away. Thx!
i am about 10.5 months post-opbut tip is still swelling. In the am especially my tip is pretty stiff and softens through the day and by the end of it my nose looks normalish (but still a bit puffy). at 4-5 mon my tip was smaller and defined but i had 2 dents near the tip area.doc injected aqua mid into one side and kind of cut(?) through the other (am not sure what he did my eyes were closed and it was really painful like he was cutting/ injecting my nose multiple times).
I had a closed septorhinoplasty on April 28th, 2023, so I'm almost 6 months post op. I know the swelling takes up to a year or more to subside and really see my results. The nurse told me if I took pictures at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months, it would look different in each picture. I did not take pictures periodically and tried to trust the process. Now at 6 months post op, there is little to NO difference at all since about 2 months post op.
I am 1 year post septorhinoplasty and as the swelling has gone down I am left with this bump on one side of my nasal bone and am wondering what could be going on here. My surgeon thinks it is still uneven swelling and wants to see me in a year. I have checked in with him at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months (12 months being the most recent). He is a double board certified (ENT and FACS) with over 35 years of experience. Should swelling on the bridge be gone by 1 year? What else could this be? Thanks!
A small metal door from a dog cage fell onto the bridge of my nose about a week ago. My rhinoplasty was 1.5 years ago. I now have a small amount of swelling to the bridge of my nose that I can only see when I look at my nose from the side. When I press on the swelling, it does not hurt but it does feel hard. Should I be concerned that I have fractured my nose or damaged my rhinoplasty results? I did have some bruising but no bleeding or pain. No pain with movement or manipulation.
So, im basically 6 months post op now and im worried about my swelling on the tip. I dont know if its swelling or if its generally crooked now? It looked dead straight coming out of the cast however I have had a few minor bumps to the nose. Ive always noticed a difference in my rhinoplasty that my right profile always looked different from my left since day one of surgery. However ive never had any previous asymmetry, I know things cant be perfect but help!
Would really appreciate some help/advise. I had rhinoplasty 3 years ago for a smallish hump. I do have very thin skin in general and the swelling was significant I ended up having steroid injections but it only kept the swelling at bay for a little while. I am now 3 years post op and I am constantly waking up wondering what my nose will be like today. I find it its hot my nose will swell up! My nose before surgery didnt do this. Many thanks, chloe
I have a bump at the tip of my nose where the cartilage ends. Can this be swelling still at 1.5 years post op? Additionally one nostril seems to be facing a bit sideways where one is nice and beautifully rounded. I have a feeling this is no longer swelling at 1.5 years post op. Thoughts? I still struggle to breathe through the nostril that looks a bit sideways as well.
