I'm 19 Wks Pregnant and I Believe I May Have Fractured my Nose 9 Days Ago, What Should I Do?

Kristy in south Louisiana
I had light swelling for 3 days followed by light bruising under my left eye & upper nose. By 4th day I noticed upper left side of nose slightly sunken in & can feel a "dent" in bridge on side of nose. The last few days the pain has increased, I'm getting bad headaches, lots of pressure in upper left side of nose & can hardly breath on that side. It's still sunken in and dented. What can I do for pain & should I go to a Dr asap?
