Dear Ma'am,
It may just be a bruise/ soft tissue injury. However, sometimes minor fractures may not be detected in elderly people. Apply crepe bandage, ice and limit his walking for few days. If pain persists, you may need to see an orthopaedic surgeon who will decide if further investigations (CT/MRI) is needed.
Next Steps
Crepe bandage, ice, elevation and rest
