What Causes Twitching And Pulsation On Left Side Of The Nostril?

Hi, I ve noticed for about the last week that my left nostril will randomly feel like it s twitching or pulsing. There s no pain, I don t have a cold and my sinuses are normal. It s almost like when you concentrate on a certain part of your body and you can feel your heart beat. Maybe that s just what it is, but I just wanted to check. Thanks!
