You also need to rest it and do 20 min of ice and 20 min of heat.
it will ease up and should go away within a couple days.
I'm going to go with what you said because someone else that knows a paramedic said the same. I'm going to head out in a little while with my boyfriend's mom and get some adult strength Tylenol and a heating pad.

Thanks, I sure hope it eases up by tomorrow or something.

It hurts but I don't really think it's serious enough to go to the doctors office, I feel as if they'll just tell me to do what I'm doing already because I've been before for leg sprains and stuff. Thanks again!
