had this done aged 17 as my nose exploded in every scrum in a series of rugby matches, queuing me being sent to the blood bin!
I still think its harmed my sense of smell, but at the time I probably ignored the warning labels as playing rugby was more important to me that smelling!!
I used to get nosebleeds all the time - exacerbated by pollen, heat and exertion.
I had the blood vessels in my nose burnt out, and it's no longer a problem.
