Hello welcome to the health care magic
You have bruise like injury over groin by holding bike
So you can take Anti inflammatory drug also like ibuprofen or Naproxen for five days
Avoid strenous work up
Take rest for few days
Avoid movement that causing pain
Ice pack can be applied for soothing
Take care
Hope this will help you
Usually one week needed for recovery in mild injury
If needed you can Consult orthopedic surgeon for examination and further work up accordingly
