Ice: Use ice, take anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen, and try to avoid reinjury.

Have it checked: This could be subperiosteal hematoma or soft tissue hematoma which may need to be drained of the large amount of blood, or it could harbor an infection later - have it checked by a surgeon/ podiatrist.
