Suggest Treatment For Pain And Swelling On The Knee Post Injury

Hit my knee cap on the dresser. a week later, I started having problems such as pain around the knee cap with swelling of calf. Hurts when I walk on it. have been hopping for about 1 1/2 weeks. Have put heat on it at night and it feels better when I wake up in the morning, but when I start walking on it , it gets pretty painful. Could I have chipped a bone and if so what can I do to make it feel better.
