Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
Well,first it should be evaluated by xrays to rule out fractures. if there was only contusion then hematoma is usual sign of it and it should subsde within several days. you should rest,apply ice cmpresses or heparine gel on it and be patient.
Wish you good health. Regards.
