Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to the injury.
The swelling is normal and will go away on its own.
Meanwhile,I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.
I also suggest using cold compresses to relieve the swelling.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
