Hello,

I had gone through the case and found that crep bandage is enough for it if swelling and pain not increases.

But you need to take complete rest at least for 1 month and take Calcium along with it. if pain is severe then take mild pain killer.

Hope my answer will be effective for you.

Thanks & Take care
