just apply ice to the affected area and always keep it elevated and rest

You should see a doctor. Is it swollen? You need to try and rest it, maybe put some ice packs on it but place a towel or something between the pack and your skin. Try to keep it elevated. Wrap it with an ace bandage if you have one but not too tight. And if it doesn't get better soon, please see a doctor.
