Fell down now i have severe pain in left hip/top of ass check on left side only. swell 2 to 3 times the size. what could be wrong? what can i do

Spine Injury: The swelling suggests a muscle contusion/bruising (this will resolve after a few days/weeks) but the other pain in the distribution as you suggested is the result of an irritated nerve or facet joints or other injury typically in the lumbar spine (low back) which are caused by herniated disks, spinal stenosis or degenerative disc disease, etc requiring further evaluation by a spine specialist.
