After going through your query I concluded that you got injury to your distal radioulnarjoint (a type of sprain). Treatment of it is rest to joint, analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Vitamin B and C is helpful in recovery.It may take 15 days to heal. You can discuss with your Doctor about it. Hope your query get answered.
