| - One other possible theory about the disease is that, in fact, it only affects people with particularly large noses. This may be because of the excess heat transferred by the larger nasal surface area causes an increase of sweat and tension, making friction against the surrounding skin, leading to prolonged irritation and skin nerve cell malformation, then to high sensitivity and repetitive nasal scratching, ultimately then progressing to skin flake detachment and redness, then eventually leading to this disease. However, it could also be a coincidence and is therefore nothing to worry about. Doctors are keen to stress that people with big noses are not necessarily going to suffer from this disease at all.

Unless the person with large nose happens to be a) a hypochondriac or b) someone with eczema. In which case, they should probably be wary of their nasal area and any itches. But they should still be fine. As doctors are keen to stress, Big noses are okay! Unless, of course, the person with the big nose has both eczema, is also a hypochondriac, and has been known to have Spontaneous Bouts Of Sneezing. If so, they should seek medical help immediately, and possibly arrange life insurance.
