Hello all...I am a 30 year old male and play in a competitive amateur adult soccer league twice a week. Never had any sort of major injury, but caught an errant elbow to the lower part of my nose and lip about 6 weeks ago during a match. At the time I blacked out quickly, stayed on my feet and kept playing the rest of the game. I had minor internal bleeding into my throat, and my nose cartilage felt like it was shattered and floating around when I moved my nose from side to side. I spent the evening in emergency as they did nasal films and said it was not broken...Just a bad contusion. Still slighty sore today.


Now about 6 weeks later I have trouble breathing out of the right side of my nose. Not like it is stuffy with congestion, but breathing just seems blocked. I have been living on 12 hour nasal spray because it irritates me so much and during the night. Any thoughts on if this will go away etc? I need to follow up with my doctor.


Thanks.
