Septum issue?

Septum issue?
I was using a nasal stent with my full face and even nasal cushion. I recently switched to a nasal pillow which really inflated my nostrils. Last night I noticed right where the bone and cartilage meet at the bridge there is something there on my right side of the nose and pressing it causes an audible clicking and I can feel something rubbing against the bone.  It's a bit hard to find without pap moving it to the surface but it is still there and will move and click.

I'm assuming this is the top of my septum?  Has anyone else had something similar?  I'm wondering if I should have this looked at.

RE: Septum issue?
No way for us to know without you seeing an ENT - they'll be able to tell you almost immediately after looking in your nose and giving you an exam.
