Its blunt trauma. No need to worry. You need to take little precautions.

Raise feet while on bed by putting pillows. Also I would not suggest you to take antiinflammatory med till you can tolerate pain.

Simply put some turmeric powder in warm milk or warm water and drink twice. May also apply turmeric and clarified butter on swollen and bruised site ( even if wounded). Do for few days. It's safe and natural anti inflammatory and bacteriostatic . If pain is intolerable, may take some light anti inammatory. Turmeric use may still continue. It's vastly used in India.

It will help you soon. My wishes.
