Nose injuries

Nose injuries are fairly common, but they can be extremely discomforting and distressing. A broken nose, for example, accounts for around two-fifths of all facial injuries, and can lead to permanent disfigurement.

Given the nose’s location and its protrusion from the face, it is the site of many face injuries, and is often fractured by people participating in contact sports or assaults.

  • The nose is mainly made up of two long nasal bones.
  • The nasal septum contains both bone and hyaline cartilage that separates the nostrils.
  • The nerves in the nose allow the sense of smell.
  • The nasal airway runs from the back of the nose to the lungs which allows one to breathe through their nose.
  • The bridge of the nose is located at the top. This is where the nasal septum and the two nasal bones join.

How much could you claim?

You may be entitled to receive compensation if you have suffered a nose injury and it was someone else’s fault. The amount you are entitled to is dependent on various factors, including:

  • The pain and inconvenience caused
  • Losses incurred through medical bills
  • Losses incurred because you rely on your facial appearance for employment
