lumps in nose

I have 3 lumps in the tip of my nose. They feel like balls of cartilage and i can kind of move/roll them around under my skin. I have 2 big ones side by side on the tip and a smaller one above them, more on the bridge. I've had them for a long time. Im pretty sure I have a deviated septum but idk if its related or not.

ive had them for years. theyre definitely not zits. they arent visible but when i smile and my nose kinda scrunches, the one on the bridge kinda sticks out if that makes sense. they literally roll around though like balls of cartilage are just hanging out in there lol.

Can you see them in a mirror?  Or are they so below the surface that you don't see any bumps on the surface, you have to feel them with your fingers?  

Not sure where my question may lead, but I ask them because I get lumps, bumps, in my ear lobes  and I believe they are pimples under the skin.  In my case they feel like peas, sometimes larger.  They come and go, and very rarely one gets large enough to be visible and it will at some point rupture usually on the neck side of the ear lob.  Not a nice social thing for it to do, but it isn't often.  I don't believe I have ever discussed with a doctor.
