ClinicalFeaturesAlthough these injuries do not often appear to besevere, the mistake of undertreating nasal traumacan lead to significant long-term problems. Externaldeformity, nasal obstruction, septal perforation andother complications (e.g., chronic sinusitis) oftenpersist and sometimes worsen months or years afterthe original insult. Thoughtful assessment andproper management of nasal injuries can reduce therisk of these sequelae, thereby reducing the needfor delayed corrective septorhinoplasty
