A member asked:
Does a nondisplaced anterior nasal bone fracture need surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: Need to allow the swelling to go down and if that is the only issue , then surgery is not needed , but there could be cartilage damage in the nose area and that requires a physician exam to make a decision.
