hi

Thanks for your query

i can feel your concerns

sorry to hear about your accident

i advise you to take rest

donot put weight or pressure on injured site

cold massage is also helpful

you can also apply some local painkiller like diclofenac sodium on site

take some oral painkiller as well

usually it settle with time

however if pain continues then i advise you to consult your doctor for proper examination

you may need few investigations like x-ray after consulting your doctor

wishing you a speedy recovery
