A 51-year-old female asked:

Ive always had a small bump on sides of upper nose but lately one side looks bigger. could constantly taking deep breaths(due to back issue) & excessive yawning daily cause that or would those repetitive actions not change bone or cartilage in nose?

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. What you described is not likely to be related to yawning or breathing. The lesions could be intradermal nevi. It would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!

Can excessive yawning or frequently opening mouth wide daily (such as to shout or sing) cause the small bump on sides of bridge of nose to get bigger or become more prominent? Or does only surgery change nose/bump shape?

Could I've caused bump on bridge of nose to get bigger by taking lots of deep breaths & yawning? Been doing that a lot last few mos due to a back muscle strain. Now I'm worried I caused the bump to get bigger. Or can only surgery change bump shape?
