As with most sports injuries, the most effective way to treat is through RICE, rest, ice and elevation initially. If it lasts more than a week, see a doctor.

As soon as possible, rest it, ice it, compress it and elevate it. A compression bandage will help minimize any internal bleeding. Massage and stretching exercises will help.
