Specializes in General Surgery

? Broken nose: If you got punched hard in the nose, i would be concerned for a nasal bone fracture. You should have this checked out. Given your headache and ear pain, i would recommend seeing your doctor as soon as possible or even going to the emergency room to have them evaluate.
