Suggest Medication For Pain And Headache Due Nose Injury

I fell a week ago on my knees and then hit my nose and then forehead into a refrigerator. I was fine an hour later, but now, a week later, my nose still hurts when touched and I have had a slight, dull headache on and off ever since. How long does a nose injury take to heal?

Hello
It seems from the history that you had a injury to nose following which you are having headache and nose.
This can be because of muscle injury or because of injury to the nasal bone.
The treatment is by using analgesics and antiinflammatory drugs.
If the pain is not decreasing you need evaluation by ENT doctor to look for injury to nasal bone.

Thank you
