Breathe through your mouth. If the bleeding doesn't stop with pressure, your health care provider may need to put gauze packing in your nose to stop the bleeding. After the nosebleed stops, try not to blow your nose because the bleeding may start again. Avoid taking aspirin or other anti-inflammatory medicines because they may make bleeding worse. Take acetaminophen instead.
Many broken noses heal normally with no special treatment.
You may be sent to a specialist to have it straightened. You may need surgery. If the septum has become deviated and you have trouble breathing, you may need to have surgery in the future. Do not start any activities until the nosebleed has completely stopped. If you have broken your nose and you play a contact sport, wear a special nose and face shield for 4 to 6 weeks after the injury.
