Hi,
It might be a contusion or sprain, As a first line management you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. You can apply ice packs for faster recovery. If symptoms persists better to consult an orthopedics and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
