Injury to hip needs to be ruled out by x-ray of the pelvis with both hips anteroposterior and frog-leg views. Please get it done from the radiology center nearby you. Numbness in the foot may be due to injury to hip and swelling.
If an x-ray is normal, you need to take rest and analgesics. Do ice packs application at the site of injury. If x-ray report is abnormal, then you need to consult an orthopedic surgeon, nearby your area.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Jayesh Vaza
