I had a nose accident...
The other night I was at my boyfriends house playing with his German shepherd. Long story short, the dog fell on my face, directly on my nose. He's a big dog, and I'm only 4'10'' so he hurts me a lot. I just wanted to know if it might be broken or not. My nose has been red ever since, it hurts and bleeds from time to time, but no bruising (yet). When it does bleed, it's only for a few seconds, maybe a minute or two. It's swollen and my eyes really hurt, especially when i move them or look at light. Also, I have TMJ so it's been messing with my jaw too. When i rub my nose, it clicks and crunches, then sometimes that makes it bleed.

It sounds to me like it's broke, have you got it checked out yet?

It's hard to say whether it is broken or not. You can get hit in the nose and all it'll do is REALLY hurt it. Even with swelling, bleeding, etc. The best way to find out whether it is broken or not is to see a doctor, right away mind you. Because if it is broken and you don't get it properly taken care of, it could heal incorrectly causing slight dis-figuration or other future problems.
