I Feel my nose is pushing forward, Please read?

Question

I get this sensation where I feel my nose, around the bump of the nose, is pushing forward and forward. It used to only happen at night when I went to bed, but now it happens during the day too. i has been going on for less a year. I been to a doctor and he checked for polyps and said it wasn't polyp but didn't know what else it was.

The shape of my nose is thin and sharp and since the I started to get preasure of nose moving forward, my nose is a lot bigger.The place of this feeling that I have is right on the nasal bone, not below the nasal bone which is cartilage. I used nasal afrin, nasal spray wash and nosonex but didn't work.

I can't figure out what the problem is. I don't know if its related to mucous, cause I sometimes have mucous in the back of my mouth and I have like white tongue.

Can anyone tell me what this problem is and what I should do to get rid of it because its extremely irritating.
By the way, I am 21 years old

Answer 1

I have not heard of this particular problem before, but I'm sure it is very frustrating. I know you have already seen your doctor, but if it is still an issue you need to see an Ear, Nose and Throat specialist (ENT). They may want to do a CT scan of your nasal bones to see if you have a bone spur or some other mass that is causing pressure. Good luck.

Answer 2

Make an appointment with a ENT specialist thats Ear Nose & Throat MD. You could have a ustable nasal septum from a "old" injury,and cartilage can shift and grow.The "Afrin" spray could be making things worse it has some strong drying agents,using a saline mist might make make things feel better. Take care. SW RNP

Answer 3

I haven't heard of this. It's possibly the result of swollen adenoids or allergies. Get a second opinion from an Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist. Good Luck.

Answer 4

I am outraged that they did not test you for bone cancer... What is it... not good enough insurance?
