Get an exam: With swelling and pain after an injury most patients benefit from a good exam, diagnosis and treatment plan. If you are concerned have it looked at and possibly get an xray if a fracture is in question. Make sure to stay off of it as much as possible, keep it wrapped, elevate and ice it throughout the day.
