Dear friend,
Consult a ortho doctor if swelling presist more than one week, i feel you must try homeopathic medicine Arnica 30, 4 pills 2 hourly for one week,or consult a homeopathic physician i your area and follow his instruction. Arnica will help to remove the pain and any internal injury to the muscles and bones.
thank ypu
