Contusion: With a direct blow to the nose, which has a very high number of blood vessels, bleeding can occur. If there is no place for the blood to drain, the blood will collect and produce a pocket in the tissues of the nose filled with blood. If left alone this blood area can clot. That clot can break down and produce increased pressure from the broken down clot. This can easily become infected.
