What Causes Pain And Swelling In Nose All Of A Sudden?

My nose is swollen and very painful. Just having my glasses on causes pain. Touching nearly any place on my face causes pain in the swollen area (upper nose, by the bridge). I was first aware of it yesterday morning, and by this evening the pain had increased considerably. I have no memory of bumping it or being hit with anything.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain in the nose can be because of the hair follicle infection either inside or outside the nose. Nothing to be panic, consult an ENT surgeon and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole (if you are not allergic).
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
