A member asked:
What is the difference if you got hit on the nose, anyplace. how do you know if the bone or cartilage is broken or is it the nerves that is hurting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Broken Nose: If the nose is hit/struck, a broken nose usually causes black eyes. A broken nose is essentially not painful. A very painful nose might be due to a localized staph infection and needs treatment.
