How To Treat Accident Mediated Chin And Shin Injury?

Monday I slipped getting into a truck and smashed my chin into the metal step. Shin is red in area of injury, warm to hot to touch, painful to walk. I've taken three days off from work to give it a rest applying heat and now trying ice. Not much change. Am I in trouble?
