Hi
Thanks for your query

I'm Dr Sudhir Kumar

I have gone through your query and understand your concern. It is likely to be soft tissue injury.You can take analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief ( you already taking). Icings is helpful in reducing pain. Vitamin B and C is helpful in recovery. However it is unlikely to be fracture but you can get x ray to rule out fracture.

You can discuss with your doctor about it.

Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then I will be happy to help you.

Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
