Will Swelling On Nose Of A Child After An Injury Subside After Some Time?

Hi, my 4 year grand daughter hit her nose on a piece of furniture and it started bleeding. We got the bleeding stopped and are putting ice on her nose as it looked a little swallow. She is not complaining of a headache or anything just that her nose hurts. She is sleepy but she did have a hard day today. Is there anything we should look for or should she be okay.

Hello! Thank you for writing us here.
You can giver the little baby aspirin by only when she have lots of pain but apart from that, putting ice would help l. The swelling would subside on its own. But please do take care that you don't use too much ice or else her might get sick.
The swelling would go away in a week so don't worry.

Best regards,
Dr Gunjan
