Hello there. I have read through your question and would like to tell you that you have suffered soft tissue injury which may take at least 10 to 15 days to recover completely. You should continue taking the painkillers and also try icing the area at least two times in a day. Also you can take Tab chymoral forte which will help to heal the tissue injury faster. You can discuss it with your doctor. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write. Thank you for choosing healthcare magic.
