Asked By:morabis18

Hello I am 17 but had a sport-related injury( a dodge ball) to my nose when I was in the 3rd grade and it wasn't obvious at the time with the swelling so no one made it a big deal. In the years that follow I begain to notice my nose become a different shape and has gotten harder to breathe right especially when sick.now my nose has changed so much that it has made me insecure. I cannot wear glasses due to the bump that has formed in those years. Please help. I will greatly appreciate it.
