nose punch and sinus pain

I work at a daycare and the other day I was trying to pull an exersaucer out of the crib.  I was pulling it by one of the toys but it was stuck.  I guess I was pulling hard enough to pull the toy off because it eventually came off and came slamming into my nose.  Ever since then I have been having really bad sinus problems.  It just gets worse and worse every couple of days.  Any idea as to what could be going on?  I am really uncomfortable. Thanks!

Well I have to call the ENT about my son tomorrow so I will see if I can get an appointment then too.  Thanks for the advice!

Hard to comment on exactly what is going without an image and a physician's visit, which I recommend you doing ASAP.

I would recommend getting imaging of your face asap.  Have you tried ice and anti-inflammatories?
