Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. You should get a physical examination by an orthopedician and a repeated X ray may be in different projection to rule out fracture. If no fracture then it can be strain or sprain which can be managed by immobilisation for short period. NSAIDs like ketoprofen and seratiopeptidase will be helpful in relieving pain and swelling.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
