Common issues affecting the nose include:

Infections and Inflammations
Identifying and managing nasal infections:
- Symptoms: Look for signs of infection such as nasal discharge, sneezing, or coughing.
- Odour: Unusual smells around the nose could indicate an underlying infection.
Nasal Tumours
Understanding the signs of nasal tumours:

- Advanced Signs: Breathing difficulties, wheezing, or abdominal breathing may indicate more serious issues like tumour growth or respiratory infections.
