What To Do For Bruising In Elbow Due To An Accident?

This morning at senior day me & some friends were climbing the high water slide & she slipped landing straight on my left arm. Hours later my elbow is bruised & my whole arm hurts. Shoulder - wrist. It hurts to move it or hold something in that hand. Help?
