Unstable nose, bone crunching, and widening. Is this caused by a detached nose tip? (photos)

Asked By:dnbkittie in Scotland, United Kingdom

I can easily push my nose left and right up and down without much pressure. When i move my nose left to right i can hear bone crunching and it feels like i can pull the tip away from my nose. When i smile my nose widens and points downwards badly. Is it because my nose tip is detached?
