1. call your surgeon's office and speak with the on-call doctor.
2. REMOVE THE PACKING FROM YOUR NOSTRILS.
3. Following rhinoplasty the upper lip is often stiff and swollen. In my experience it only lasted approx 1-2 weeks. I would check in with ur doctor. It is most likely just residual swelling. Swelling takes months to completely go down and swelling varies from person to person and depending on what procedures were done during surgery. I'm sure it's nothing to worry about, but just double check with ur surgeon for peace of mind! :)
