I had a rhinoplasty (nose job) to repair a deviated septum. The doctor said it is fairly normal to have numbness. I had my surgery about 9 years and the left side of my nose is STILL partially numb. However it is getting better.Health Question & Answer

it may take some time for the feeling to come back. in some cases the feeling never comes back, especially if any nerves were cut during the surgery. consult the dr who performed the surgery and inform him of your concerns.Health Question & Answer
