I wold wait and see how it goes, if it stays, then see a doctor, in the meantime, try putting an ice pack on it, this might help the swelling.

Hello,
If it is not better by now, see your physician again and ask for either a CAT scan or an MRI, this will show much more than a basic x-ray, the swelling tells me there is something else going on that the basic X-Ray did not show.

Most of the time, a simple x-ray of something won't show enough detail to diagnose a problem.  I would suggest that you obtain a primary care physician if you don't have one already, and complain of the symptoms to him, also ensure that he receives the hospital reports including the x-ray.  If I were you, I'd request an MRI to be done, because it is a better diagnostic tool than a simple x-ray.  You may have a hairline fracture that was not able to be seen on the x-ray.  Good luck!
