Description:
Closed reduction of a nasal fracture is a procedure used to realign broken nasal bones without surgical incisions. It is typically performed once the initial swelling has improved (about 3–7 days after injury in adults, or up to 10–14 days in children) but before the bones start to heal in the wrong position.
The procedure is done under local or general anesthesia, and the surgeon repositions the nasal bones using gentle pressure or special instruments. After reduction, an external splint is usually applied for support and protection during healing. Closed reduction restores both the appearance and airway function of the nose in most uncomplicated fractures.
