Yes I've had this issue and had to have it taken care of by my ENT. I had to have some tissue from my hip grafted on the sight, it was easy and mostly painless. I have a small scar on my hip and was a tad sore for a few days but nothing major. I would definitely talk to your ENT about this as more than likely he'll be the person performing the surgery if needed.
Hope that helps! Good luck!
