I took her out to look at her one more time before bed and looked real close at her nose. It doesn't seem swollen, and I was about to slip my tweezers under her lip to take a peek in there when I noticed that the side of her nose that looks mushed in didn't quite look right. Looking at it closer, she has a cut right from the bottom of one of her heat pits down to her lip.
You can't really see it in the pictures (I tried) but right where the lip is the most smushed in, is the heat pit with the cut at the bottom. I put a bit of neosporin on it to make sure it doesn't get infected, but the cut seems clean so by next shed I figure it should heal up.

Thanks for all the help!
