I can only breath out of one side of my nose, if I get a cold/hayfever then breathing is a pain in the arse, especially when eating etc
It's not a massive problem during exercise but I do find myself breathing through my mouth more than I should, which at the top of the sport is obviously a problem.
Shane can set aside the month it takes for the tissue to recover etc so why not?
