Q. Septal Cartilage Crooked Nose (Crooked Nose) Symptoms After Rhinoplasty

I had nose surgery on February 10 of this year, and it seems like the septal cartilage is bent.

Something white is visible inside the nose of the crooked noseㅠㅠㅠㅠ

The hospital where I had the surgery said it was swelling.

It would be a relief if it were swelling, but I’m worriedㅠㅠ

Is it really swelling? Will I need revision surgery?

If you look at the question, after the rhinoplasty, something white is visible inside the nose, so the person visited the hospital where the surgery was performed because they thought the septal cartilage might have bent due to the crooked nose.

The hospital said it was swelling, but the person still felt anxious about the crooked nose and posted the question.

From the photo shared by the person who asked, it is not clearly visible.

To know for sure whether the septal cartilage inside the nose is bent, it would need to be examined.

If the degree of septal cartilage deviation is not severe, it would be good to wait up to 6 months and then

have it checked at the hospital where the surgery was performed.

I wish you a good result from the surgery.
