The right side of my nose expands if I exhale forcefully. Is this normal? It looks pretty weird. My left side just stays the same (maybe a very little movement) and my right side has like an bulge if I exhale forcefully for the amount of time exhaling. Thanks for any answers.

Yes it could be a normal phenomenon unless associated with any symptoms. It could be because of nasal cycling which changes every 30 mins. Meaning one nostril is more open and patent than the other. After 30 mins to 1 hour, it becomes opposite.
