I heard that repeatedly, over a period of time, fiddling with/pinching/touching the end part of the nose, which is made of cartilage, stimulates the soft tissue and causes an increase in growth ie. touching the end of your nose a lot causes the cartiligious part to change shape. Is this true? I've heard of the nose always growing slightly throughout life but does touching it a lot/fiddling with it accelarate this growth process or not at all? Basically, if you keep messing with the buttony bit of the nose a lot does it alter its shape & size/positioning etc. Any med people out there?
