Brief Answer:
Apply ice pack.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Ask a doctor forum.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should apply ice packs on that part.
Also take painkiller like paracetamol or ibuprofen twice daily.
Along with painkiller also take antihistamine like levocetrizine twice daily.
Don't worry, this will be alright with all these in 1-2 days.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
