Hi,

I feel you should consult a doctor for physical examination, X-ray if needed and then specific management. Even small injury to deep tissues / bone left unattended can cause chronic pain later on.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
