Nose Re-Surgery

Revision rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage, day 2

I had it done at Jeongwon. Dr. Seo Man-gun

This is my second time using autologous rib cartilage. I now have two medal marks on both sides of my ribs..ㅠㅗㅠ

The hospital put nasal packing in my nose, and the whole way home was no joke

My mouth felt like a drought. Seriously, it felt like my tongue and the roof of my mouth were so dry they were cracking apart

In the end, as soon as I got home, I took out the nasal packing... I also loosened the stuffy abdominal binder that was wrapped tightly around my ribs...;

Other people say they still feel blocked even after taking out the nasal packing

But for me, the moment I took it out, it was heaven. Like a tollgate had opened? I could taste food so well too. What is this? I think my stuffy nose is even less than before the nose surgery. I only had a little nosebleed on the first day. There is some swelling though

I just slept all day. I slept better after taking out the nasal packing

My nose feels totally fine, like I didn’t even have surgery, but my ribs are screaming whenever I try to lie down and get up. It feels kind of like muscle soreness. I’m walking around hunched over. If someone saw me, they’d think I had rib surgery..
