Now the day after tomorrow will be 2 weeks I had silicone removed through the left side with a closed approach On day 5, I posted that my left nasal ala was swollen white.. I also had pain around the glabella, so I was worried about inflammation and went to the hospital, but they said surgery was running late and I waited 1 hour past my appointment time before meeting the doctor.. The doctor looked once inside my nostril and said there was nothing wrong and no reason for it to hurt.. They said, how long has it even been since surgery, why are you like that.. They said they didn’t know about the nasal ala being swollen white, asking where it was, saying they couldn’t see it. The nurse? said they couldn’t see it either People around me could tell right away when they looked.. It’s really strange.. that only the hospital staff can’t see it.. Honestly, I’m a bit flustered Like the doctor said, not much time has passed, but I went because I was worried about sudden pain. The appointment timing was ridiculous, and even though I said I lost sleep at night because of the pain, they didn’t even prescribe one common anti-inflammatory painkiller.. When I said it hurt at night so I used a cold compress, they told me to do that.. It felt like, since they did the surgery, their job was done.. that kind of feeling I was already anxious emotionally, and after going to the hospital I felt even more hurt On my own, I bought and took anti-inflammatory medication. Now the glabellar pain is gone, and the problem nasal ala is still unchanged, slightly swollen white, and compared with other areas it feels a bit hard and tight.. The inside of that swollen area seems to be where it was stitched My skin/tissue healing tendency isn’t good, so I’m worried whether scar tissue has formed there and that’s why it’s like that I had leg surgery before, and the scar was quite large, so even in midsummer I only wore long pants and lived pretending I wasn’t hot. I’m really sick of scars Should I take medication to prevent scar tissue? Those who are taking medication or have taken it, please tell me.
