Does a hump on the nose grow during puberty?

Asked By:poppoppy20 in Beverly Hills, CA

As a kid I always had a small and cute nose. I'm looking at pictures of my nose when I was 10, and it looks small, perfect, and straight. Now my nose is significantly bigger and bumpier. It has a huge hump on it, too. What happened? Why does it grow like that (that's not sexually attractive)? And are all adult noses less attractive? It seems like kids have straight small cute noses while most adults have crooked, bigger noses and not as good breathing (deviated septums)?
