What Causes Pain Around A Skin Graft In The Nostril?

I have a skin graph on a nostril that a dog bit off. I ve stopped smoking for a couple of weeks. But will smoking a little bit of weed from a pipe be likely to kill the blood vessels? The pain is almost unbearable and I just feel so unhappy.my life has changed so much because of this.

Hi
Thanks for posting your query on HCM
I have read and understood your concern.Sorry to hear you were bitten by a dog.
Pain after the graft is normal and will only disappear with time.I wish to know since when you were bitten and when the graft was done.Also, a graft infection is possible.I will advise you see the Doctor to examine your nose if pain persist.In the meantime, a pain drug like aceclofenac may help.I will also advise you avoid smoking for now.
Hope this will help.You may write back if more concerns
Best regards
