Do I have extra cartilage on one side of my nose?

jronan
I have started noticing how my nose looks crooked because it appears there is excess skin or cartilage on one side of my nostril. I also have an indentation between my nostrils. In pictures one nostril looks covered up. Would the removal procedure be considered a nose job or just shaving off the excess? Also, do I have a bulbous nose?
