Rhinoplasty Done. Nose Itchy, Swollen, Red After Using Fess Eucalyptus. What To Do?

Hi,

I had a rhinoplasty 2 months ago. So far i did not have any problem.
Last weekend my nose was blocked i had no nasal spay at home so my flat mate gave it to me his one( he sterilized before) Fess Eucalyptus.
I was applying a few times. Now my nose is incredibly itchy.
My nose had a cut externally had a few stiches there after surgery.
It healed really nicely but now is swollen and really red.
Im really worrying about it. I cant go back to my doctor because i had an operation overseas.
what should i do?
Many thanks

General & Family Physician Dr. Ramesh M.Vachharajani's  Response
Hi,
It seems that there might be having some infection in old stitched wound giving rise to swelling out side and likely having inside the nose giving rise to nasal block.
Consult your doctor.
With one antibiotic medicine course and proper dressing will solve your problem.
Ok and take care.
