A nose fracture is a break in the bone or cartilage over the bridge, or in the sidewall or septum (structure that divides the nostrils) of the nose. A nasal fracture is a break in the bone over the ridge of the nose. It usually results from a blunt injury and is one of the most common facial fracture.
Though seen occasionally in family practice, patients with nasal fractures are more likely to present to emergency departments or urgent care settings. Fractures that are more than two days old will have substantial edema and should be referred urgently for subspecialty evaluation.
The nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses The lateral wall accommodates the three nasal conchae: the superior and middle nasal conchae of the ethmoid bone, and an independent bone, the inferior nasal concha. The three nasal meatuses (superior, middle and inferior) pass between the nasal conchae.

A broken nose usually heals on its own within 3 weeks. Get medical help if it's not getting better or your nose has changed shape.
Surgery can realign the bones and reshape your nose, if necessary. If the break has damaged your nasal septum — the middle part of your nose that divides your nostril — your breathing may feel blocked or you may feel like you have a stuffy nose. Reconstructive surgery may be recommended.
Severe injuries with gross external deformities or compound nasal fractures require early surgical intervention and should be referred to the emergency department immediately.
Behind this bone is the frontal sinus. So a fracture in this area can cause a large amount of swelling, called sinusitis. The swelling of the sinus, in turn, can be a cause of tooth pain. If you damage it, a maxillofacial surgeon is best equipped to restore it.
