Asked By:lollyyy in Las Vegas, NV

About 5 years ago a closet door fell on my nose and pushed it the left. I got it fixed shortly after but over time it has been shifting more and more to the left. i can't sleep on my left side anymore because my nose will hurt really bad when i wake up or sometimes it just hurts for no reason. I also breathe better from my right nostril which can get annoying. I also do not want to change my nose just get it more centered.
