Finally, finally, finally, finally, finally, finally one month in! The swelling has gone down a lot, and I no longer have to do the dressings I used to do every day! They put rubber in so my ear shape wouldn’t get distortedㅠ but I ended up losing it, what a mess. . .
Just like when I used to do dressings every morning and night, I clean inside my nose with a cotton swab soaked in saline, and for behind my ear and under my nose, I got a very moisturizing cream prescribed by a dermatologist, so I’ve been applying it diligently. Postoperative scar aftercare is really important, so carefully!
When the splint was removed at week 2, I was very swollen and worried about my nose shape, and I was grateful that the counseling manager explained everything well. At first, the swelling went down unevenly on the left and right, so it looked really ., . funny, and because it was my own nose, I was so upset, but they said the swelling would keep going down and that we needed to keep watching the shape a bit more.
My nose at one month, still has a lot of swelling under the nose that needs to go down, but I feel like the outline is gradually taking shape,
Now even when the nasal tip is stimulated, the pain seems to be gradually decreasing.
I’m going to see the doctor for a follow-up at the two-month mark. Until then, I’m hoping the remaining swelling goes down more!
