A member asked:

Does your nose spread during early pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. David Martin answered

Specializes in ENT - Head & Neck Surgery

Nasal spreading: This term is most commonly used when a woman is pregnant, and the nose swells, giving it a wider, or "spreading" appearance. This typically improves shortly after delivery.
