A member asked:
I fractured my nose 3 weeks ago. the bone is slightly crooked, not that bad. is it possible to still get a closed reduction this long after injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It is common for the nasal bone to be rebroken and set again for better healing result. It is probably better to get this done sooner rather than later.
