Suggest Pain At The Lower Shin Area Due To An Injury

I fell while I was walking up the stairs about 3 hours ago and hurt my lower shin/upper foot area and have a major sporting completion and I am wondering what I should be doing to improve my chance of being able to compete well and do think I can recover.
Thank you

Hi, in case you think you have not broken your bone, apply ice at 4-6 hours gap to the injured area and take general analgesics that suits you. You shall be fine in 2-3 days.
