Question

On Sept 12th, a few years ago you corrected the tip of my nose and I just wanted to ask the expert a question.

Whilst sleeping, I accidentally whacked myself in the nose and caused a nose bleed and was wondering if I could have done any damage to the cartilage?

Answer

It seems highly unlikely that the nose would be damaged through this sort of injury, but I would be happy to review the situation and therefore give you a clearer answer.
