Five months after revision surgery, the area on the nasal bridge where silicone was inserted partially swelled up like hives, then went down within an hour... Two days later, it swelled up again and went down within an hour, and this kept repeating. I had a CT scan at the hospital and everything, but the director said it was not inflammation, and judging by how quickly it subsided, it was not a foreign-body reaction either. But it continued for over a month and was causing me severe stress, so I had the silicone removed. It has been 2 weeks since removing the silicone, but it still swells the same way The red swelling has gotten a bit better, but it swells up like a lump. Then it goes down within about an hour again... Could it simply be a skin problem? Please help me
