nasal fracture management saline spray decongestant guideline
For a nasal bone fracture, nebulization is usually not needed.
For nasal blockage or dried blood, use normal saline nasal spray or gentle saline nasal wash, plus cold compresses and head elevation. A short course of a topical decongestant nasal spray such as oxymetazoline may be used only if a clinician advises it, especially for bleeding or severe congestion, and not for more than 3-5 days. Nasal-fracture guidance supports saline washes to clear clots; topical decongestants can reduce bleeding and swelling. AAFP review
Seek urgent ENT/emergency assessment if there is persistent heavy bleeding, clear watery discharge, severe obstruction, a soft swelling inside the nose suggesting septal hematoma, vision problems, or facial deformity.
