Broken Nose

So I just broke my nose in my soccer game on Sunday on some kids forehead. First time breaking it.

For those of you who've broken your nose before, how long were you out of sports? What did you do for it when you came back?

Shit.

I broke my nose twice in one week once, best friend punched me and then hit the deck of the pipe with my face. I collapsed my septum and had to have a nose job so i could breath out of my nose again. I was out for about 5 days< i think the dr said more but i went at my own pace, after surgery, you have to sleep sitting up for 2-3 nights so you don't swallow shit loads of blood. After that its just like a bad headache. if you didn't break it bad enough to hinder your breathing permanently, leave it alone and you will be fine.

a lot of basketball players play with broken noses all the time. Depending on how much you wanna spend or whatever. They can make these face molds that goes over your face and protects your nose. You can still play, it might hurt a little, and you look like a big goof wearing it.

That's really weird. On Tuesday in my soccer game I collided with another kid going for a header. They thought I broke my nose, jaw, and maybe my cheek, but thankfully nothings broken. I've just got a really bad concussion.

Good luck with your nose.

ha, so listen to this. i went to an ENT yesterday, and he said that my nose was broken before the soccer incident. funny thing is, i have no recollection of ever breaking my nose, so ive had a fractured nose for several years. the soccer collision just knocked the already fractured bone out of place.

im pumped thoug, cuz im playing tomorrow with no mask or anythging. still hurts like a bithc thogh
