Do I have a deviated septum?

• I got headbutted in a soccer game and my nose started bleeding. I've never even had a regular nose bleed before and this stung pretty bad. It was a bit numb but now it's feeling better. It's only been one whole day since it happened but I've been having difficulty breathing out of one side of my nose. I know it might be swelling but I was wondering if there was any advice on whether it could be a deviated septum. It doesn't necessarily hurt when I move my nose but it is a bit tender. Is it probably just swelling still?

• Answer:

  You need to go get it checked by a doctor as soon as possible. I had a deviated septum from getting hit in the face with a metal bat. If left alone for a long time one side of your brain will get more oxygen than the other. Your brain will not function properly and if your under twenty one then you stand to lose the most. I had to have surgery which was painless to correct it. message me if you have any more questions about it.
