Small dorsal looking bump on right side of nose after injury (Photo)

Asked By:Khadz_xo in England, United Kingdom

4 days ago a football got kicked to my face causing a nosebleed. A small bump appeared on my right side of the nose on the nasal bone. Only right side profile looks normal but left has a bump which is visible in some angles. I want to know if it’s swelling or if a bone has caused this hump. What procedure would be required if it’s a permanent hump. Only happened recently. Not sure how long left till my nose heals and it’s harder to do surgery on. My nose before was smooth and no bumps.
