In such emergency cases, this platform might not be the right place to seek opinion/treatment. Please elevate affected limb and do ice packing with anti inflammatory and analgesic medications. Applying crepe bandage and not using the affected part remain imperative. Please get an xray done to rule out bony injury. Review after three days.
