Hi,
It might be a minor contusion or something like carpal tunnel syndrome.
As the first line of management, you can take analgesics like Acetaminophen or Tramadol for symptomatic relief. If swelling persists, better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
