Obviously do not do cocaine. Depends a bit on the type of injury. Mostly it is a small blood vessel damaged and of very little significance. It can be a hole in the inside of the nose. It should be easily visible with a mild flashlight. If there is a hole, it probably needs surgical evaluation. Otherwise, vaseline or neosporin to just cover any irritaion visible. If it looks entirely normal and stopped bleeding, you can't speed healing because it is doing as well as it can.

This is general information and cannot say in our particular case. Other possibilities (like a pimple forming inside the nose) might be present that I could not anticipate and cannot examine.
