When does a child's nose grow taller?

In life, we will find that some parents find that their children's noses are relatively flat when they just give birth to their children, so they will listen to some methods to help their children make their noses firmer, that is, pinching the child's nose bridge with their hands. So is this method effective and when will the child's nose grow taller? Now I will give you a detailed introduction, and I hope every parent has a scientific understanding of this.

The flat nose will eventually become higher

Every newborn baby comes into the world with a flat nose. This is a normal phenomenon, but as the baby grows, after the fontanelle closes, the child's bones will grow and develop rapidly, and eventually the collapsed nose will become taller. Therefore, parents do not need to worry too much. After waiting for a while, the baby's nose will naturally return to normal.

Pinching the nose bridge will affect the baby's breathing

The bridge of an adult's nose is made of cartilage, and the bridge of a young child's nose is even softer. However, there are numerous blood vessels in the nasal cavity. If parents often pinch their children's nose bridge, the child's nasal cavity will become congested, which will in turn damage the child's nasal mucosa. The baby's nasal defense ability will decrease. Over time, the child will not only have difficulty breathing, but will also suffer from respiratory tract infections, which is very harmful.

The height of the nose bridge is determined by genetics

As mentioned above, as the child grows older, the bridge of the nose will gradually become higher and there is no need to pinch the nose anymore. But some children are born with flat noses, and it won’t change much when they grow up. The height of the nose bridge is determined by genetic genes. If one of the parents has a flat nose bridge, the child may also inherit it. However, the bone development of the nose bridge cannot be changed through artificial shaping. For the health of children, parents should not pinch them randomly!

In fact, the factors that affect the height of a child's nose bridge are determined by genetic factors. Therefore, parents should have a scientific understanding of this. They should not pinch the nose bridge to make the child's nose straighter. This will cause other adverse effects on the child and cause him to suffer from some diseases. Therefore, every parent is reminded that they must give up this method.
