hi.
observation will do for now, especially if your x-ray results came in to be normal. it might just be an inflammatory reaction from the trauma. it will eventually subside in a few days time. take pain medications after eating as needed for pain. if the swelling persisted or progressed, consult with a doctor.
hope this helps.
good day!!
