Ice packs for 8-10 mins to reduce inflammation. Consult a physiotherapist as soon as possible.

I am sorry but I don't know why everyone is suggesting you to start stretching and chiropractic movements...
Please get it screened with some orthopedic who can suggest right X ray view if required and put u on some NSAIDS... Then exercises comes into play...
