Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Painful Knee

My 16 month old son gor leg caught under a tricycle. It has been 3 days and he won t stand or walk on it. When he tries he falls down instantly in pain. Took him to the doctor they did xrays and nothing broken. All they said was it will go away. Do you know what may possibly be wrong. I noticed today his knee is now swollen and he still won t walk or stand on it.
