^Especially regarding the nose tip? Also how does a surgeon fix it and how difficult is it?
By maxillary spine, I assume that you mean a nasal spinefracture. The nasal spine is a smallboney part of the nasal cartilage that is seen on x-ray and looks like a smallspine extending form the nasal bones. Itis frequently broken with trauma and this is seen on a lateral x-ray. Almost always, after the swelling form theinjury that broke the spine has settled or gone, there is no change in the nasalshape nor the breathing or functional capabilities of the nose. Therefore, there is usually little, if any,consequence to a fractured nasal spine.If, however, you are having a problems or have any concernsafter the swelling has settled, you should see your primary care provider or aspecialist to see if anything needs to be corrected.I hope that helps.Best regards.
