uneven nose

[mimi22]

I've noticed that my teenage son's nose is growing unevenly, it looks crooked, like it's broken, but I know he's not injured it playing sports or any-thing. Does any one now whether this is unusual?

my older brother had this problem but i grew normally with time i wouldn't worry unless it is causing him pain

Quite incredibly, the nose continues to grow all during your adult life.

my brother had the same sort of problem. He went to the docters a few time and they eventually realised he had extra cartlidge(i think thats what they called it) which was pushing the nose and making it appear crooked. It wasn't causing him any pain, but he did have an operation to have it fixed. They had to cut away the extra cartlidge. He was about 18 when he had the op, but looking back at photos, I can see it from when he was about 10 onwards.
