Hello,
It could be a contusion or hematoma.
As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
You can also apply ice packs for faster recovery.
If symptoms persist you can consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
