Hey, I been going to a local boxing gym for about a month now and just recently started sparring. Been sparring a guy who is considerably better than me, but I'm not terribly outclassed. He's got a good jab and needless to say its been connectin with my nose, yesterday I got popped a hard one in the third round(first time I went 3, 2 min, rounds) and its been swollen up and stuffed up bad every since. Should I put ice on it? Keep blowing it(I don't think I should, but its frustratin havin it stopped up all the time)? Or put a warm wash cloth on it? Any tips for healin it, besides learnin to slip the jab and keep my hands up more?

Thanks.
