Hello,
It may be due to blunt trauma.
For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.
You can apply ice packs locally.
Still to rule out any possibility of fracture, you may require x ray after ENT consultation.
Apply nasal saline drops locally.
Hope I have answered your query...
Let me know if I can assist you further.
