You need to find if you have any ligament or muscle injury. X ray and sometimes MRI may be required but only after examination by a doctor. Just do some cold sponging till you visit a doctor again.
No cross leg sitting on floor till then lest you may harm yourself.
Next Steps
You can visit any pain specialist if pain still persists to find out real cause of pain.

If the pain is persistent after resting with a brace, it is an indicator for a possible ligament injury. You need to be re-evaluated by a sports surgeon for the same.
