Typical signs of having fractured your nose include hearing a crack and seeing obvious deviation of the nasal bone.
Facial fractures, including nasal bone fracture typically leave people slightly bruised.
From your pictures there is no obvious indication of a nasal fracture but we can’t give you a quality assessment without an exam or x-rays.
If you think your nose looks relatively straight, then there’s probably no fracture and you don’t need to have your nasal bones reduced.
Most people who break their nose have a fairly obvious deviation.
Most people also recall hearing at crack, though sometimes things happen kind of fast.
In your situation, you’ll need to make the decision if you should get a valuated or not.
When people have nasal fractures, it is my personal preference to get the fracture reduced as soon as possible.
I typically do not wait for swelling to subside and like to get them reduced within a few days.
