What to do when you have a cheek injury?

This is an automatically translated article.

Question:
Doctor, I have been injured in my cheekbones for 5 days, but half of my upper lip and teeth and the skin on my temples are still numb and my eyes are dark. Also, when I spit out sputum in my nose, I still have some blood clots. I don't know if it's concave or broken cheekbones or not. Ask your doctor for advice.
Thank physicians sir!
