I've been feeling this constant sensation like there's an insect moving around in my ear. It's pretty unsettling, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could this turn into a serious issue, or is it something that's generally harmless?

I hurt myself while jumping in a play arena, trying to do flips. I ended up landing awkwardly, and my knees were really close to my nose, which I think led to some impact. I started bleeding from my nose right after. A few people around helped me out, and the swelling from the impact disappeared after a bit. But now, my nose hurts whenever I touch it, and it feels like the cartilage separating my nostrils is a bit shifted to the right. Should I be worried about this?
