nose swollen???

0 ⤊

i smashed my face against the wall and i got a small bruise and a bump on the bridge of my nose. i put ice on it. how long would it take for the swelling to go down? is there anything else i can do to make the swelling go down faster?
thanks.

keep putting ice on it. it will go down maybe in a week. if you have a bruise that might take a while to go away, i say about 2 weeks. good luck!
