    I cant breath through one of my nostrils, and my nose has become crooked. I have been told the doctor can fix that.

    My real question is: When i touch the tip of my nose it is soft, whereas it used to be hard - like the bone is gone. is that normal?

    I have bought a mexican headguard to protect my nose.

    I don't think anyone can provide a reliable diagnosis over the internet tbh, I reckon it's best to see a doctor mate

    for some reason i've never had nose issues. if your nose is crouched hopefully they can rebrake and put it back in place.

    Might be broken. I've had the same exact thing for years after I broke my nose (got in a fight with my brother), and have never gotten it fixed. Bad decision. I'd recommend getting it looked at, as it makes it pretty hard to breath through your nose.

    One question: Does the part of your nose where it is crooked seem "whiter", like you think you can kind of "see" the bone? If so, it's could be broken. Also, did you bleed, and was it a good amount?

    I bled like a pig.

    The doctors dont want to fix it as long as i box. so i got to wait.
