Broad Nasal Tip

What is a Broad Nasal Tip?

It is a tip of the nose that is wider than normal. This usually will be obvious when looking at a face with this feature.

There is currently no objective measurement of a broad nasal tip.

Symptoms may affect multiple parts of the body. Understanding which part of the body a symptom affects, can help us to better understand the potential underlying causes of a symptom, including a rare disease or genetic syndrome.

The nose is a part of the respiratory system of the body, a system which includes the lungs and airways to. The respiratory system is what makes it possible for the body to inhale and exhale air to breathe.

The nose is also a sensory organ. It is responsible for the body’s sense of smell.

Sometimes symptoms affecting the nose can be seen with the eye. Although diagnosing a nose-related symptom may involve different tests and assessments, both subjective and objective.

Symptoms relating to the nose may affect its structure, shape and/ or function. Some features will affect just the appearance of the nose while others may affect its ability to smell, and it’s ability to function properly as a part of the respiratory system.

What should I do next?

In some instances, a broad nasal tip may be one of the features of a rare disease or genetic syndrome. To find out if someone with Broad Nasal Tip, may be due to a genetic syndrome, it is important to have a consultation and evaluation with a clinical genetic specialist.  Specialists may also suggest specific genetic testing or other types of tests to help reach a diagnosis.  FDNA’s AI technology can help speed up the diagnostic process by analyzing facial features and other health information.
