I’ve had a little tiny hard bump on left side of nasal bone for about a week now. It’s hard and looks like it’s on my bone and not on skin. It’s maybe 1mm? It doesn’t hurt. As humans we all think the worst. I’ve never had a nose job but I do wear eyeglasses at all times for the past 10 years. It’s a small, round, hard bump on left nasal bone. It’s not noticeable unless I move my nose around and I can feel it. Any feedback will help. Is it life threatening?
