Would insurance cover a rhinoplasty after a car accident?

Asked By:ajax2008 in Philadelphia, PA

I recently got into car accident and injured my nose due to the airbag hitting my face. The doctor that looked at my nose said it was not broken, but I have been having breathing issues ever since the accident. It feels like my nose is constantly stuffy and never drains. Would insurance cover the cost of having a rhinoplasty done to address the breathing issues? I never was a big fan of my nose to begin with, but now I dislike it even more due to the accident.
