Rhinoplasty: Experiences and recovery tips?
in Health ·
Hey everyone!
So, I'm at day 8 post-nose job. The bruising has cleared up, but now I’ve got these little clumps stuck inside my nose—they're basically fused to the stitches and won't budge. It's incredibly annoying because it makes breathing such a chore. I’ve already tried messing with Q-tips and even tweezers to get them out, but no luck... if anyone has figured out how to deal with this, please let me know. 🙂 As for the look of it—I originally had a bit of a fleshy tip and a wider cartilage structure, and right now, 8 days in, my nose looks pretty much the same as before, just slightly more rounded at the top. If anyone else has been through this, I’m wondering if that tip is actually going to shrink down and when? I know it takes time, obviously, but I've heard rumors that if you start with a fleshy tip, you can't really achieve much change in size, which has me feeling a bit anxious. 😢
