Hypoplastic Nasal Tip

Understanding nose related symptoms and features

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 that 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 its ability to function properly as a part of the respiratory system.

What is Hypoplastic Nasal Tip (small tip of nose)?

It is a decreased tip of the nose, making it smaller than the standard nasal tip. The nasal tip is underdeveloped or deficient.

What should I do next?

In some instances a small tip of the nose may be one of the features of a rare disease or genetic syndrome. In this case fast, targeted genetic analysis can give you a more accurate diagnosis.
