What Is The Treatment For Swollen Nose And Puffy Face After Fall?
my 5yr old fell face first after being pushed and her nose is very swollen, face all puffed around the top of her eyes and along side her nose. she caught her top lip also. when i saw her first i did not recognise her as she was so swollen. i put frozen peas on for ten mins, off for ten mins and when she allowed I put on allot of arnicare. it looks broken to me. its vering to the left half way down the nose.

Hi

Greetings of the day
Local application of ice and analgesic like Ibuprofen wil be helpful.
If the swelling does not subside and there is gross deformity of external nose then i would suggest you to get a X ray in consultation with Pediatric Surgeon to rule out nasal fracture.
