What Could Be The Reason For A Dent On The Side Of The Nose Where The Pad Of Glasses Would Sit ?

I have a spot on the side of my nose just below my eye in the spot where the pad of glasses would sit. It swelled up like a bug bite and then deflated so I now have a dent there. That side of my nose is now tender to the touch. Any ideas of why the dent is still there. It has been a week now.
