It has been four months since I had an open rhinoplasty to reduce a nasal bump. However, since the surgery, I have been experiencing constant nose congestion. The congestion worsens in cold weather, and people frequently ask if I have a cold due to my blocked nose. Prior to the surgery, I did not have any breathing problems. Is it normal to feel congested every day for four months following rhinoplasty?
I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing difficulty breathing after surgery compared to before. I recommend consulting your surgeon to evaluate if there are any potential obstructions that can be addressed either surgically or non-surgically.
I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing discomfort after your rhinoplasty. It is recommended to consult with your surgeon for a thorough evaluation of your symptoms. Weather-related congestion can often be resolved without the need for a revisionary procedure. I hope you find relief soon!
Fluctuations in breathing with changes in weather may be related to turbinate function. Turbinates are nasal organs that adjust in size based on environmental conditions. Discussing postoperative nasal obstruction concerns with your surgeon can help identify potential solutions without additional surgery.
Persistent blockage and other symptoms four months after surgery should be evaluated by a surgeon. A face-to-face consultation is necessary to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.
