Question 1

i hit my nose, i pulled on the refrigerator and the door swung open and hit me..slight bruise and a couple little spots of blood on tissue when i put it up inside, doesn't hurt unless i press on the area.. did i break it?

Accepted Answer

Nasal Fracture fears: Is your nose bent or swollen?  It sounds like there was just a few drops of blood with no brisk bleeding.  Is it hard to breath through your nose? Is there a lot of mucus running out of your nose.?  Is it slightly tender or significantly painful when you press against your nose.?Does it crackle when you push up against it?  If you answered no to most of these, questions, it is less likely fracture
