Dear Sir/Mam
First you should do x-ray exam to see if you have a fracture or not.
After that the sweling will continue for some days maybe 7 but this depend on the severity of the trauma. you will see ekumosis.but dont worry.
Ps. dont neglect the x ray because if you have a fracture this may be dangerous!!!
