Suggest Treatment For Bruising On Leg Caused By An Injury

5 days ago I got hit with a softball. It is on my inner right leg up above my ankle. It welted right away but I didn t put ice on it. It hurts to walk and driving with it, the bone itself hurts. The color of it is yellow with purple. It is a little warm to the touch but if something brushes against it hurts so bad. And Im not quite sure if I should go get an ex-ray for it.
