10 Broken Nose Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #6: Bruising
A broken nose may cause bruising of the nose and its surrounding. It may even cause a black eye. This happens when the blow causes injuries on the skin. Bruising may only affect the top layer of skin in which case it can clear within a few days. More serious bruising may cause discoloration and lead to crusting of the skin within a few days.
As with several other symptoms of a broken nose, only a visit to the doctor can determine the extent of damage. In case the bruising is clearly superficial with no pain internally, you can wait for it to clear in a few days.
