View allI heard the nose and ears keep growing throughout life. During my rhinoplasty, the surgeon cut and repositioned the bottom of my nose now the tip bends downward and sticks out more than before. Will it grow back to normal over time, or will it keep drooping further forward? It's been bothering me so much that I've even started washing my nose constantly, like I do with my hands and lips after eating. Another doctor helped restore my breathing and smell any insight on this?
The myth that the nose continues to grow throughout life is false. While the nose can change shape and size due to aging and gravity, these changes are not related to growth. The drooping nose tip after rhinoplasty is more likely due to swelling, cartilage remodeling, or surgical complications, rather than continued growth. If you are experiencing significant discomfort or changes in the nose shape, it's crucial to discuss these with your surgeon or a specialist.

I'm noticing a bit of redness inside my left nostril. There's no pain, just some irritation, and I've been rubbing it a bit. I recently spent a day in a house that's under construction, and now it's feeling itchy. Could this be something serious that needs me to see an ENT, or is there a simple solution I can try at home?
For itchiness and irritation, you can use saline nasal spray and if you have dust allergy, use face mask in exposure to dust or pollution.
