Well in the tent we hung up a flash light in the middle of the tent...And its one of those humongous flashlights..Well, I fell alsleep right under it and in the early morning it fell off the tent and fell onto my nose... Like a minute later it fell on my nose i woke up and my nose was really hurt! Now its two days later and I have some bruises on it...and its a little swelled and it really hurts if you touch it like at the top! Someone please help!~

Aww thats gotta suck! You could have broken it. Does it look askew? Or just brusied & swollen? I suppose its to late now to get an ice pack on it so your best bet would be to see your doctor. Even if you have broken it & have to walk around a while with a bandage on your poor nose, at least you wont look like your a rough-nut-fighter-chick in a few years time! If its not broken & just really badly bruised & swollen, maybe your doc can get you onto some anti inflamitories or something along those lines.
Good luck :o)

Go see a docter if you're worried. You could use ice for a couple minutes at a time to take the swelling down. I'm thinking if it didn't bleed, you probably just bruised it. Check it out with the docter if it doesn't get better .

I'm not a doctor, and I don't play one on T.V., but it sounds broke to me. You need to see a Dr. or hospital, because I've had a broken nose twice, and ir really screws up your sinuses and stuff! And if it isn't set (fixed) before it heals your nose can become crooked, and will be painful for along time. Tell your parents/ caregivers, and see a Dr. soon.

You need to see a doctor or go to the ER and get an X-Ray.
If it's broken..you don't want it to heal back incorrectly.
Put some ice on it in the meantime to take down swelling.
Hopefully it's only bruised really bad..but it could be broken.

GO GET MEDICAL ATTENTION PLEASE!
BEST OF LUCK !

If it was broke you would surely know, you would be in a lot of pain and your nose would be huge! I think you just bruised it, im sure you fine. Also I believe if its broke you wouldn't be able to breathe through your nose. Not sure about that but Yea I don't think its broke.

It's possible that it's broken, but if it's not really bad (you can breathe and you don't have black eyes) there's really not much a doctor can do about it. You could see a doctor, they will probably give you tylenol or advil and tell you to go home. If it hurts that bad, then you might go, but you probably won't be scarred for life or anything if you don't.

You should probably have it looked at by a doctor. In the mean time put some ice on it to cut the swelling.

you may have hair line fractured it..best is to get an xray-that'll alleviate your fears about what may have happened, holding some ice on that area will help bring down the swelling as well...but get checked out at an ER clinic!

You might want to get it checked out just in case so if it is they can make sure its going to heal right so you don't get a bump on it, cuz if its broke it might heal wrong and that bump will stay there utill you have it re broke and fixed. so go have it checked to be safe!
