In my youth, I suffered from a condition whereby air would leak out painfully through my nose. If I continued playing the pain (feeling of raw chafing, internally) would become unbearable.
Is this the condition to which you refer?
I stopped playing for 10 years or so (I took up singing instead - you can't ignore the call to make music); When I resumed I trained myself to breathe only through my mouth and never through my nose. The problem has never recurred.
In retrospect, as a youngster I was not very confident about my embouchure and once I got the reed playing I would breathe in and out through my nose. I am fairly certain that this exacerbated the problem.
