apparently dr. oz just did a piece about "the triangle of death"--that area from between your eyes to just below the corners of your mouth. most people will have their hands in and around there doing something either consciously or sub-consciously at least once a day. pulling nose hair and popping zits on the nose and near the lips can easily lead to infection including infections that can spread to the brain. i'm not suggesting you did any of those things but swelling is a common sign of infection. i would see a doctor asap. here is some more information i just googled using the words: pulling nose hairs infection swollen good luck and take care!
my nose swelled up and began bruising when will the swelling go down? . yesterday i got punched in the face i've never bled from my nose this was the first time. immediately one side of the nasal ridge began to swell up. i iced it for 20 on 20 off and took ibuprofen. later the other side of the ridge swelled up then the top of the bridge and around my eyes. i iced around my entire face. i woke up this morning with bruises underneath both eyes. you can follow a straight line through the ridge until the tip. please help how can i make the swelling go down quickly?
