After rhinoplasty it is common to develop scabs within the nose. This is due to the free mucosal edges and also the internal sutures. Please be careful when pulling on the scabs, since they may be attached to a suture. You should follow your doctors directions. In most cases, keeping the area moist and gentle application of a Q-tip helps.
