Hello Ma'am,
There is no cause for concern if the nose is straight and the child is not complaining of excruciating pain. The irritation and impact probably contributed to the symptoms you describe. If everything seems to go back to normal in the next few days, I would not consult for that.
If instead the hematoma (bruise) continues to grow over the next 2-3 days, then I would invite you to see a doctor.
