Found a kitten with a nose injury. What temporary care can I give?

Question

Hello! I am on vacation in an isolated village and I found this kitten in a bad situation on her nose. I do not have many options here for treatment. Can you give me an advice on what should I do temporarily before returning back and going to the vet? Thank you very much for your kind help!!! Pet's info: Cat | Norwegian Forest Cat | Female

The best you can do is to place an e-collar (cone) on her to prevent pawing or rubbing. Keep the area as clean and dry as possible until she sees the veterinarian. There are no OTC medications that you can safely apply. She would likely lick them off anyway.
