If you haven't done so already I would ask this question or put a pointer to this thread in the Conservation/Safe Keeping Forum

Probably best to leave alone, but you may want to try inserting a balloon or something similar into any available opening...Than very carefully blow air into it....This should help reform it's shape where it has been crushed....Bodes
