Got Hit on my Nose a Year After Rhinoplasty Have I Caused Serious Damage?

July 25, 2013
Asked By:Experience

Hi I was play fighting with a friend and he accidentally elbowed my nose as i was standing behind him. he hit me on one the right side of my nose really hard.This caused it to bleed for ages. Have I caused permanent damage to my nasal bone. I had rhinoplasty a year ago to straighten it. I'm really worried I have caused it to move and bent my nose again. Please advice me.
