Anatomical terminology

The Transverse Nasal Crease or Transverse Nasal Line is a condition where a crease or line is present across the bridge of the nose. It is often associated with Allergic Rhinitis.

Causes

The Transverse Nasal Crease is often caused by the repeated action of lifting the tip of the nose to relieve itching. This action is often seen in individuals suffering from Allergic Rhinitis.

Symptoms

The primary symptom of a Transverse Nasal Crease is a visible line or crease across the bridge of the nose. This may be accompanied by other symptoms of Allergic Rhinitis, such as sneezing, nasal congestion, and itchy eyes.

Treatment

Treatment for a Transverse Nasal Crease primarily involves addressing the underlying cause, such as treating the Allergic Rhinitis. This can often reduce the need for the nose-lifting action that leads to the formation of the crease.
