hello dear
thanks for your query at HCM
nose and surrounding structures are very sensitive to injury.
there can be damage to cartilage or bone that might cause severe pain in that area.
it will take some time for pain to decerease.
if pain is not subsiding or increasing go for x ray nose for any fractures or deformity.
if there is defect in x ray then you can proceed with further investigation and management.
