Give it a day...: It is a soft tissue injury and it will cause some pain. Take some painkillers and rest. There may be slight bruise at the back also. If there is problem standing up and trouble walking then rest and put ice alternating with hot pack for a day. If you feel numb in the legs then don't weight at home and get it checked urgently in the hospital.. Good luck.

Back Pain: The fact that you describe the pain as severe tells me it is time to see the doctor.
