Similar thing happened to Tatum when we first got her. It happened right before we had to leave the house for a church dinner. Her vet happened to be at the dinner and he said to just watch her for at least 24 hours before getting too concerned. Sure enough, she was back to new the next morning. I'm sure it does hurt the poor baby but right now he probably just wants to rest. Sounds like he's gonna be okay though if he let you touch it and poke around on it. I do agree though that you could/should probably give him some baby aspirin IF he still acts like it's sore today. Ask the vet how much but recently I gave Tatum a half a baby aspirin when she seemed to be sore from her shots and she's almost 6 pounds.
Hope he's back to new soon!
