Hi, welcome to healthcare magic forum.
Because of trauma you are having pain & inflammation. IT will be better if you will apply crepe bandage, that will help in reducing edema. I usually prescribe anti-inflammatory ointment for local application with anti-inflammatory medicine if pain & swelling is more. You can also try the same if you want or you can visit a local doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
Good luck.
thanks.
