This growth formed inside my nose after a rhinoplasty. I did have this nostril pierced for a few weeks, a few years before the rhinoplasty, but I took it out quickly because it wasn't healing well and I decided I didn't want it.

It effects my breathing a lot because it takes up like the entire nostril.
