I just noticed that my parrot's left nostril and ceres are different than the right - it actually looks like the top of the left nostril is missing and the ceres (hole) is smaller. There is a possibility that I bought it, or it was damaged (which is less likely). This has no functional impact, for now.
I'm attaching a picture, it's a bit blurry, so you can see the condition.
I have no experience with changes and parrot anatomy so please comment.

It looks to me like it was scratched from an injury. Please advice

p.s. Sorry if the terminology is not precise or appropriate, I googled to write the terms

I am not seeing what you are describing . Can you take a frontal photo so we can see both sides
Here's another picture, I hope it's clear enough.

Wow they different sizes. My Amazon will get clogged names if I don't keep her misted or a wet paper towel by her sleeping perch. Maybe one of her nares are clogged?
