if you broke your nose first there would be copious amounts of blood. Second, Yeah, It would hurt. ALot. If you can breathe okay just call your doctor and get his advice.

well it depends..u should look at it this way...
1. is ur nose swelling up and is it purple looking because if it is it is broken and u should go to the hospital.
2. if it hurts real bad it could b broken and u should go to the hospital.
3. if ur nose is bleeding non-stop then u should go to the hospital.
4. if ur nose is mis-shapen r it looks akward looking u should go to the hospital.
other then that.. i think u r fine and probably overreacting. if it just hurts a little bit.. put some ice on it. u'll b fine

Yes, you would be in pain but you could have a fracture and not be in agony. If you have swelling, bruising or if your nose is displaced or flattened, you should be seen by an ENT for evaluation for nasal bone fracture or septal deviation. Occasionally nasal fractures require nasal splints, which are internal. And if your nose is fractured an ENT can rule out a depressed fracture which requires surgical repair. The nasal bone is relatively easy to fracture. Better to be safe than sorry, right?

When I was young, I got in a fight and someone broke my nose...i didn't find out until about 20 yrs later when I started to have sinus problems...have it looked at now and save yourself some aggrevation.

it doesn't always hurt much when you break you nose. I have broken mine 3 times, and only once was it really painful

If your nose is broken, then it would hurt from touching it. It would also be noticeable.

Not really.
I have had mine broken 4 times. It makes it sore but it is not a lot of pain. If it straightened early it will heal less ugly.

If your nose was broke you would know it. ;)
