My cousin was supposed to wear one of those for soccer because she broke her nose so often - didn't help 'cuz it was so annoying/obscured her vision it got taken off!
my break was a hair line fracture and did not show up until much later. The swelling was the problem.
If she continues to have blockage and pain, I would see an ENT.
Hope she feels better very soon. And she can use some nasal spray for the swelling, just don't let her use it often or more than a couple of days.
And OL, a small bag of frozen green peas makes a great ice bag, very pliable. When my daughter was playing sports our doctor told me to always keep a couple of bags frozen.

Thanks, she already uses Nasanex so the dr just said to keep it up. I will keep the ENT in mind. I think the ped said something about that this morning before he sent us to x-ray. Yeah, the frozen peas have been a staple since Mr. OL's ...ahem..."surgery".![]()

This whole trauma must have weakened Sam's immune system. She now has a nasty stomach virus. Dylan is home too. He hasn't been throwing up like Sam has but he complained of a stomach ache this morning and started crying. He went back to bed and has been there since.
She said her nose is a lot better.
Stomach virus? The poor girl can't catch a break. But Dylan can catch her stomach bug. :shock: Get out of the house now OL, save yourself!
See ya kids!See ya kids!
Dylan just got up and he's eating. Seems to be okay to me but I told him he could stay home the rest of the day anyway. He's only missed a couple of days this year. Sam just gets sick a lot easier than most kids. She was supposed to lead a tour of incoming 7th graders today. She's extremely bummed about that. Hopefully she can lead another group another day.
Sounds promising for Dylan. Being hungry is a good sign. I hope Sam gets to do the tour thing another day. When is school out for them?
11 school days and counting...June 6th. The day before Dylan's birthday. I think we're going to have a big end of the year/Dylan's birthday bash on that Friday night. I've always wanted to do a Survivor/luau themed party and saw some really good decorations that I better go get before they're all gone!
