Suggest Treatment For Bruised Ankle And Swollen Leg

I am 35, 5'9" and weigh 150#. I just fell down marble stairs and bruised the front of my legs at my ankles. Immediately after the fall, the areas turned dark purple and swelled up. Now, 45 minutes later, the color has changed to a light pink. However, the swelling is still there and on one leg, the pain is dull up to my knee and it is hard for me to move my toes. Also, I can barely feel my toes on that side and it is difficult for me to lay my foot flat (I was wearing heels when I fell). Should I see a doctor or is this just severe bruising?
