I fell while walking laps in a gym. I fell straight on my nose. I felt my nose move to the right and there was a lot of bleeding. I saw an ENT doctor, and I have three stitches on top of nose. I had a CT scan the next day. I may need surgery. I have two black eyes and swelling.

I tripped over dog dishes and fell on hardwood floor on my nose. I don't know why my hands could not stop me. I bled for a long time but it has stopped now. My nose looks bruised where glasses sit. I'm 75 and have never had this happen before.

I was hit with the plastic part of a yard rake in the nose that produced a small laceration just at the bottom eye level. My nose is swollen, and I have two black eyes. It only really hurts if I mess with it or if I lean down and all the blood rushes to it. It's the third day since it happened and it feels better and looks better. Still have the black eyes of course, but I'm going to contact the doctor tomorrow and quiz him for more information. Thanks for this website. It was more help than I've had thus far.

My grandmother broke her nose last night by falling off her bed.

Pain, entire face. I had tripped and landed face first into a steel door. Bleeding, bruising, tears into nose and the separating tissue between them. Terrible headache, but I had just had an MRI for migraines. Only pain medication used is Tylenol; not much help. Just trying to keep it clean. Those big bulging things in the nostril concern me. Month sore from have to breath soley from it.
