Is my nose broken/fractured?!


Question: Is my nose broken/fractured?
I fell face first into a sheet of ice on Sunday evening.
My nose bled for a while and it's been extremely sore to touch and hurts if I wiggle it or sneeze or apply pressure.

There really isn't any bruising around my nose/eyes and it doesn't appear to seem out of place.

i mean, im no doctor, so if you really want to, go get it checked by a doctor, don't just go by me, but, id say most likely not. i broke my nose once in softball. if was crooked and soooo swollen and HUGE bruising throughout the whole middle of my face. it was crazy. when it was bleeding, it happened at the very beginning of the game, i stayed for the whole game, then went to the ER, still bleeding in there while waiting. bled for a total of like 4-5 hours. just bleeding for a while and being soar with no bruising and not looking out of place at all doesn't sound very broken to me. just put some ice on it if it hurts. it should get betting in a while. good luck. you don't want it broken ...plus if its broken you have to wait for it to heal, then get it re-broken, then wear a stupid thing on your face for a week.
