A bleeding nose is usually a tell-tale sign of a broken one. Breaking one's nose doesn't always warrant blood outside of the body; one may noticed bruises around the nose/under the eyes.

It's not actually broken. He has what is known as a deviated septum. The cartilage that gives shape to his nose is not symmetrical with the rest of his face. It's not uncommon.

Is there cartilage in your nose?
Yes, there is indeed cartilage in the nose of humans, which can be broken during sports or other heavy activity. Or, in extreme scenarios, if the cartilage is pushed upward in just a certain way, it would extend into the brain, most likely killing the victim. The bridge of the nose is formed partly of cartilages. On both sides are upper lateral and lower lateral cartilages. Three or four small cartilaginous plates called sesamoid cartilages are attached to each lower lateral cartilage. The cartilage of the septum separates the nostrils.
