I had revision surgery three months ago. Initially the doctor told me he probably wouldn't need to use rib cartilage as I had enough in my nose. However, once we began operating he decided he needed to use rib. I had five skin grafts. Surgery was long (5.5 hours) , difficult and complicate. My recovery was horrible and I got an infection two weeks later. Ended up in hospital. Now I'm wondering if the skin grafts contributed to it and if I should've researched this aspect more thoroughly.
