Signs of a Broken Nose
3. Is It Broken?
It is not uncommon to receive a blow to the nose that’s hard enough to cause it to bleed. After all, the tissues in the nasal passage are quite thin and easily broken. As such, a bleeding nose does not necessarily mean that it has been broken. Even if it is causing you a lot of pain.
There are some signs that make it quite clear that the nose is actually broken. At other times, it is less obvious and an x-ray may be necessary to reach the right diagnosis. If you are unsure, then you can arrange to speak with a medical professional to get it checked out.
