What Causes Pain In The Right Hand After An Injury?

I fell off my bike 5 days ago. I injured my right wrist (no bruising) and my right foot (bruising and large lump on upper top foot close to ankle). I could walk right after the injury, and now I can lift things with my right hand (couldn t for a day or so). Should I have gone to the doctor, or, since pain is a little better every day, or could I have injured myself in a way that needs more than pain reliever and ice?

if the pain persists or swelling increases or difficulty in doing daily activities then it should be worried.
