About 6 hours ago I got punched right in the bridge of my nose really hard. I was fine at first but for about 5 hours I've had a bad headache. I just took some painkillers and an arnica tablet for the bruising on my forhead, nose and inner eye but I'm worried about getting black eyes. Is there anything I can do to keep things to a minimum or ease the pain?

It's the only thing that will make the swelling go down- ice has stopped me from getting a couple of black eyes. If you get a black eye anyway, use a cream concealer and powder- usually black eyes don't last too long. For pain, take advil, but there's not much else you can do.
