A broken nose is a common injury, usually caused by a blow to the face. Most broken noses heal naturally in two to three weeks and they can often be managed at home. The swelling should go down within a week, and the bruising should disappear after two weeks.
If you suffer a less severe blow to your nose, the initial swelling of the injury may make it difficult to see a mild nasal deformity or a deviated septum. To be sure that you have not missed a fracture, wait a few days for the swelling to subside and then check your nose in the mirror.
