Broken nose recovery time?

I broke my nose tonight. I spent 4 hours in the ER and all they told me was I need to see an ENT. How long is the normal wait time until people can spar again? I was looking to fight this month, or at the latest May.

Been beaten and scarred, you'll never break me. I'm born again hard.

Chances are you will not be fighting anytime soon. Give it time and get it checked out so you don't have problems down the road. Nasal fracture in a MMA bout-suspended for 180 days with no contact for 180 days unless cleared by a physician. So that should be an indicator that it's going to take some time.

Don Frye for president!
