Do I Have To Reset My Nose?
i have broken my nose about 4 months ago in kickboxing but when i went to the emergency they told me its not broken its just tissue damage and they didnt reset it... now my nose is slightly diviated (moved to the side a little bit) ... what do i have to do? can i still compete in my kickboxing or do i have to reset it?

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum
Mere tissue damage cannot cause deviation of the nasal framework. There should be broken nasal bones which could have altered the structure. I personally feel, if its a mild deviation you can just neglect it. But, if its a grossly deviated nose, then you should finish off your competition and later go for a rhinoplasty procedure.
Regards
