What if your friend has suffered a broken nose which bones potentially could be involved in a fracture involving the nose and the nasal cavity?

In the case of a broken nose, the bones that could be involved in a fracture include the nasal bones, which are the primary bones forming the bridge of the nose. Additionally, the maxilla (upper jaw) and the nasal septum, which divides the nasal cavity, may also be affected. Other structures such as the ethmoid and frontal bones can be involved if the injury is severe, potentially leading to complications with the nasal cavity or surrounding areas. Prompt medical evaluation is essential to assess the extent of the injury and any necessary treatment.
