I've broken my nose three times - it's never needed to be reset. My particular breaks were better left to heal on their own.
If you find yourself in the same situation, then just take whatever your doctor recommends for the pain, don't mess with your nose, and let time work its magic. [ alisonmarie's advice column | Ask alisonmarie A Question ]

lilmsattitude answered Wednesday August 11 2004, 12:39 am: Have x-rays done to confirm it is broken, and it will need to be reset by a doctor. After that, ice will help with pain and swelling. Medications are dependent upon what your DR orders. [ lilmsattitude's advice column | Ask lilmsattitude A Question ]
