It was my first surgery, done without an implant (ear cartilage + septal cartilage). A strut was placed while the deviated septum wasn’t corrected, so for over a week I’ve had nasal obstruction on one side + a foreign-body sensation.... I went to the clinic, and they said swelling does have some effect, but since the septum is bent, it could remain even after all the swelling goes down. They said they can do early removal or correction. I’m really torn. What should I do? I don’t know if I can endure this foreign-body sensation for 3 months.

Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redoApr 21 Has anyone removed implants/materials after originally having a droopy Squidward-like nose?
