What Causes Sharp Pain During Stretching Of Mouth After Rhinoplasty?
i had rhinoplasty 3 months ago and recently i ve been experiencing some sharp pain when i smile. at first it was only on one nostril but now the pain has spread to the other one as well. is this normal? is this temporary? when should i be concerned? who should i see for this since my original surgeon is not nearby to consult?
Your symptoms could be related to a stretched muscle or a pinched nerve (trigeminal nerve). Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your surgeon for a physical exam.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
