What you want to do is RICE: Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation. Inflammation from an injury will typically present itself as not just pain, but swelling as well. Icing the injury for 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off, elevating it above the heart level if you're laying on the couch or sitting, and then using an anti-inflammatory like Ibuprofen or Naproxen can help counteract that inflammation.
