Postoperative care to strengthen the cartilage of the nose
Hello doctor, good time
About 7 years ago, I had a rhinoplasty
An absorbable suture was used
A part of our nose is protruding from the inside
I pressed now and the bulge has passed from the inside
And it hurts a lot, is it possible that there is a problem? And is there a stitch left inside?
Thank you for helping me
The answer of Mr. Dr. Majid Rasti, nose surgeon of Isfahan:
Hi
It is unlikely if an absorbable suture was used
Because it won't last long after that
But there are other reasons that you should definitely consult your doctor

Columella suture is absorbable or pullable?
Not pulling the columella suture for me and saying that it should fall by itself
After three months, it didn't fall, and now they say we have to kill him after a year
Can the suture be removed after a year?
Hello doctor, good time. After two weeks, I removed the non-absorbable stitches. Today, I noticed that one of the absorbable stitches in my nose is red and swollen. ! Is it infected or something? I'm very scared. God, please guide me
Absorbable sutures may not be absorbed for up to three months
And besides them, it may become inflamed, this is not the reason for infection, but intranasal ointments should be used regularly three times a day
Hello, I have been operated on for 1 month now, but in one of my procedures, stitches were visible and I was very annoyed and I did not know that it was a stitch and I was trying to pull it out, and a few nights ago and tonight, it finally came out easily. Now there is a problem with this work. Or not??

No, don't worry at all. After a month, it will be boiled enough
Hi, I'm sorry, I had my nose operated 5 years ago, but now 5 years and 2 months later, the tip of my nose swells up to the bottom of my lip, the swelling swells a lot, and the tip of my nose becomes red, and then there is pus for a while, and hey, what should I do in the middle of this pus?
There was pus in my nose and it was getting better. I went to the doctor and gave me cephalexin, but after a while it became swollen again and it started to ooze out. What is the problem?
Hi
They should go to their doctor and open their nose and remove the thread or any cause that causes pus discharge.
Hello, good time. I have been operated for a month now and I used to clean my nose with a cotton swab every day. I just saw a blue stitch hanging from my nose. does it have I'm very stressed, can you please answer, then I see one of my noses with extra flesh in a circle 😭 is it a serious problem?
سلام
No, these intranasal threads are absorbable and may stay for up to three months
Do not touch them, just grease them with antibiotic ointment, they will fall off by themselves
Inside the nose, there is no swelling of the mucous membrane and it goes away on its own
Hello, don't be tired; After the rhinoplasty, all the absorbable sutures inside my nose were removed and the outer sutures were removed in the office in the same second week; I went to my doctor after a year of smelling an infection and he gave me an ointment … Now, after five years, we still see the smell of infection; There is a piece of blue absorbent thread inside the nose that does not come off and the flesh is attached to it; I went to my doctor and he said that he should have surgery again so that he can remove it. If it is absorbed inside the nose, it should be absorbed by itself. I think he did not use the proper absorbent thread. Now there is no other way but surgery? Doctor Dig E doesn't accept me? The smell of infection is very strong; I'm getting depressed, I can't stand it anymore …
Hi
They should go to their doctor and open their nose and remove the thread or any cause that causes pus discharge.
If there is a stitch in your nose, you should go to your doctor and take you to the operating room to open your nose and bring it to them. I became like this
No, these stitches are absorbable and if they are our patients, they do not need anything
Is your problem solved?
I also have the same problem, the tip of my nose is red, pierced, and pus is coming out. I went to my doctor, he opened the tip of my nose, he said that he would put the thread back, and he took out the thread. . It is stitched again for now . OK, I'll tell you
what happened ? Is there a stitch left?
Hello, did your nose get better? Because I had the same problem as you. Anesthesia was removed. It's been ten days now and I'm still sick. I wanted to know your experience.
Hello, I have had my nose operated for 3 months now. After 3 months, I did not put my tape on for two days. Now, there is a boil under my nose right where my doctor cut it. It hurts only on that side. When I washed my nose, a thin white suture came out

Intranasal sutures are absorbable
However, the absorption time may take three to four months
They are the same stitches that fell
Hello, good time. I had my nose operated two years ago. It's been a few months now that the tip of the suture is sticking out of the middle bone of my nose. At first, I thought the excess meat was infected and my nose smells very bad. It's dangerous. I went to the doctor, he said it's nothing, but it's still the same.
Hi
You should see what type of thread was used
If it is non-absorbable thread like nylon, it is possible.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with it, but it has to be pulled, and the doctor can remove it in the office with a little anesthesia
Hello, don't worry, I did two surgeries and pulled the stitches on the side of my nose. Only one thread was out of the tip of my nose. I don't know what to do, can you help me?!? Is it a drag?
