I have a problem with breathing thru my nose but when I raise my nose tip up with my finger I feel like I can breathe better.

Hello jen0808 - Thanks for your question. Your question is a common one. More than likely, when you put upwards pressure onto your nasal tip, you are opening up your internal nasal valve allowing more air into the front of your nose. This makes you feel like you are breathing better. Placement of spreader grafts will help improve this on a more permanent basis. I recommend that you consult with a rhinoplasty specialist to have a proper exam to confirm this. They may find other causes for your airway obstruction as well. Good luck, Dr. Shah

what you were describing is probable narrowing in the nasal valve area. But also you may have septal deviation or hypertrophied inferior turbinates. See a very experienced rhinoplasty surgeon who can address both your functional as well as any cosmetic concerns. 

Thank you for sharing. Nasal shape, contour and size of difference parts may make a difference in breathing. The only way to have an appropriate full assessment is to be seen in person. No other way is adequate for a rhinoplasty evaluation. See a board certified plastic surgeon. Best wishes!

Hello and thank you for your question.  There are many possible causes of airway obstruction and many great treatment options depending on the source of airway restriction. The most important
aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek
consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate
you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

If you have a very long nose with a droopy tip then raising the tip increases the efficiency of air entry and helps breathing - photos would help give more advice
