First, get some of those tissues that have aloe and lotion in them - they'll keep the problem from getting worse.
Second, put any skin-care lotion on your nose - personally I like aloe, but almost anything should work. The point is to protect the skin and retain moisture. That increases the healing process.
Third, make sure to put extra lotion on your nose before you go to sleep. You should wake up feeling a lot better.
Fourth, stay hydrated. Keep a glass of water near you, and sip from it frequently. That will definitely help.
Last, if you have a humidifier, make sure it's clean and run it in your room when you're sleeping. Moisture in the air will help your nose feel better, heal quicker, and will help with your cold, too.
Oh, and take some aspirin or tylenol or other painkiller if the pain keeps you from sleeping - assuming, of course, that it's safe for you to take them and they don't conflict with any other medication that you may be taking.
Feel better soon!
