Hello,
It could be a contusion.
As of now you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persists better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
