Could brething problems be a result of having your nose broken twice? I cant breathe through my nose when im running(im in the ARMY so i have to run) and when im laying down, its harder to brethe through my nose. Should i go to a doc tor and have it checked out?

yes, you definitely CAN have breathing problems from a fracture to your nose.Depending on the extent of the damage you could have no problems or big problems.did you ever get an X-ray of the area?if not, you need to really see your doc and have one done.If you ever want to be able to breathe normally again, you need to have any damage or blockage fixed,if possible.Good luck,Marcia

It sounds like you have a deviated septum. My nose was broke by a hard ball and that is what happened to me. They can straighten it out with surgery.
