A member asked:
Why does my left nostril pulse (move by itself) i just noticed it in the mirror.. i do have allergies but is that the cause?

Nasal pulse: if you are looking at the tip of the nose just above the lip you may be seeing the septal branch of the facial artery. If the side of the nose is moving in with breathing this is called nasal valve collapse. You can try breathe rite strips to see if it improves. If it does not bother you, do not worry.
