I'm feeling really worried because for the past couple of days, I've been dealing with a dry nose and now it feels super itchy. I don't have a cold or any other symptoms like a headache or fever, but I'm breastfeeding my baby and I'm concerned if these could be symptoms of a virus. Can you give me some advice on what this might be and what I should do? I'd really appreciate your help!

View allI heard the nose and ears keep growing throughout life. During my rhinoplasty, the surgeon cut and repositioned the bottom of my nose now the tip bends downward and sticks out more than before. Will it grow back to normal over time, or will it keep drooping further forward? It's been bothering me so much that I've even started washing my nose constantly, like I do with my hands and lips after eating. Another doctor helped restore my breathing and smell any insight on this?
The myth that the nose continues to grow throughout life is false. While the nose can change shape and size due to aging and gravity, these changes are not related to growth. The drooping nose tip after rhinoplasty is more likely due to swelling, cartilage remodeling, or surgical complications, rather than continued growth. If you are experiencing significant discomfort or changes in the nose shape, it's crucial to discuss these with your surgeon or a specialist.
