Initially you should go for cold pack as it would help you to decrease pain in the first 24 hours of injury. You should also observe whether there is any restrictions in movement or not.
Next Steps
If there is no reduction in pain and if any restriction in movement then you should get an x- ray done both AP and lateral view
