Broken Nose / Nasal Injuries Surgeries at CMC Dubai

A broken nose is a common injury that can occur as a result of a variety of accidents or incidents, such as falls, sports injuries, or physical altercations. The nose is made up of bones, cartilage, and soft tissue, and a break or fracture can involve any of these components.

Symptoms of a broken nose may include:

• Pain or tenderness in the nose
• Swelling around the nose and eyes
• Bruising around the nose and eyes
• Difficulty breathing through the nose
• Nasal discharge or bleeding

If you suspect that you have a broken nose, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. A healthcare professional can perform a physical exam to determine the extent of the injury and recommend an appropriate treatment plan.

Treatment for a broken nose may include:

• Pain relief medication
• Ice packs to reduce swelling
• A splint or brace to immobilize the nose and promote healing
• Surgery, in more severe cases

To prevent a broken nose, it is important to wear protective gear during activities that pose a risk of injury, such as contact sports. If you do sustain a blow to the nose, it is important to take prompt action to reduce swelling and seek medical attention if necessary.
