Hi there, thanks for your question.

It's quite unusual to have such severe pain two days after injury. I suggest you meet your physician , so that he can assess your injury better. Though it's unlikely there is major injury, since you can walk. But you are not supposed to have such severe pain at present.

Hope this helps

All the best.Regards.
