Can swelling be different on each side?

I had a revision with silicone + autologous rib cartilage, and I had a lot of bruising under the left side of my nose, and more bruising on the left side overall. I'm 2 weeks and 5 days post-op, but I can't tell if the swelling is different on both sides or if the tip of my nose is crooked. The left side of my nose looks fatter, and I like it when I look from the left, but on the right my nose looks long.. If the left side is swelling, I feel like if it goes down just a tiny bit more, both sides will look the same, but even if I go to the clinic they'll probably say it's swelling anyway, so I'm waiting. But I'm seriously having a hard time because of all this anxiety. Has anyone had uneven swelling after autologous rib cartilage? And can swelling make it look very slightly crooked?ㅜㅜ
