Is my nose broken? If so what can be done to fix it? (Photos)

April 19, 2018
Asked By:klenei in Bay Minette, AL

My daughter threw 2 plastic figurines and they hit clipped the bridge of my nose. I have had a lingering headache and it feels like the pain is centered where my nose is. My eyes aren’t bruised and my nose didn’t bleed, it is slightly swollen but no one but me would notice. There is a red mark where it hit and I can barely touch my nose, it’s so tender. Should I go see my family physician? Is there anything they can do?
