Why does my nose look worse in certain angles?

December 10, 2017
Asked By:gigiandcami in Jacksonville, FL

My nose looks different in mostly all pictures and especially in comparison to looking in the mirror. Sometimes my side profile shows no bump and other times it shows a bigger bump, and sometimes a smaller bump. From a 45 degree angle it is the worst and it looks super bumpy. Straight on it's fine. Is this normal/common for noses? How do I know what it really looks like to other people?
