What Causes A Bulge Inside The Nose Post Injury?

Hi my 2 yr son hit his nose on bedframe and little blood came out at that time,then it's fine. But now we look through nose, we can find a bulging in one side of nose which blocks the breathing especially when he has cold.
It seems like the nosal bridge has a slope to that side.
What might be the reason? Is it curable?

hi
injury to nose lead to edema .
what u r looking in his nose may be enlarged turbinates ( 3 turbinates present on lateral side each nostril)
nose examination is needed from ENT surgeon.
give him xylometazoline paediatric nasal drops , ( 2 drops 2 times per day)
this will reduce the size and relieve obstruction.
