Pulling Tooth Broke My Nose?? Posted: 02-08-04 15:57pm
Hello,
i just got my tooth pulled on the left
side. While pulling my tooth, the dr was
on the right side of me pulling, he was so
close that I could hear his stomach hunger
pains.
While pulling with great force, I kept
pulling my hand up for the nurse to tell
her that he was putting pressure on my
nose while he was pulling. She just kept
telling me it was 'pressure'.
When I got home, I set down at the table
with my husband, I told him my tooth
didn't hurt but my nose felt like it
exploded. He started laughing, and told
me my nose was twisted and pushed to the
right side of my face. I ran to the
bathroom to check it out and that is a
clear angle to my bridge and my nose is
more on the right side of my face in an
almost twisted angle.
I went to the emergency room but was told
that they could not do test for broken
noses, I would have to call my Dr. So
that I can go see an ent. The emergency
Dr. Told me I had dried blood in my left
nostal (sp?)
now I have to wait until tomorrow to get
in contact with my Dr. The boney
structure that saperates my right nostel
from my left is completely on my left
nostel, and my right nostal looks like
this really big dark hole with no
structure what so ever.
So you think it's broken, and if so, have
you ever heard of someone gettign their
nose broken while getting a tooth pulled.
