Hit in nose with car door. heard crack, no bleeding. substantial inflammation in nostril (not on septum). also have a cold. should i get it checked?

Nose hit + cold: Swelling is typical after nasal trauma, with or without a fracture. Apply cool compress for the next 24 hours to help reduce swelling. If you are having difficulty breathing, above and beyond what you were experiencing with the cold, please see your local ENT specialist.
