Suggest Treatment For Nose Injury In A Child
Hi, my son is 5. He was running but tripped on the ottoman. He fell face down on the carpet. his nose is bruised and was bleeding when he got up. i put a soft ice pack on it but wasn t sure what else i should do or how to know if i should take him to the er. his bottom lip looks like his teeth went through partially - little bit of blood but not much. put cool water on a washcloth.

Nose injury may also cause trauma to nasal septum which needs drainase of hematoma. so u should consult with a otorhinologist.
