Asked By:Sabrina32821

I had trauma to My nose and I heard the crack as IT happened. My nose on the right side now I can't breathe out of. It feels as if there is.something in there constantly rubbing against my nasal membranes inside my nose. I have been sneezing since the break. You can look at my nose and see an obvious indention where the trauma happened this is the same spot where I feel something rubbing internally. Dr suggested a netti pot?
