When you pinch the bridge of your nose, where exactly do you pinch? ?

Question

I heard that pinching your nose hits a nerve that wakes you up and whatnot. Where is the spot? Is it higher or lower on your nose?

Answer 1

The upper part of your nose, where the bony part is. You don't squeeze the cartilage, it doesn't contain any nerves.

Answer 2

Above your nostrils about half way up your nose.
