Suggest Treatment For Injured Painful Elbow

My wardrobe has these little gold doorknobs to open but they're really hard and today I was fixing my hair and while bringing my arm down I hit my elbow/funny bone really hard
A few hours later
All there is/ is a pulsing pain and it hurts to bend straighten my arm
