Your complaints suggest you sustained a ligament sprain. X-ray is only to rule out fracture. Ligament injury is not visible on x-ray. Most of the ligament injuries heal with rest for 3 weeks. As you still have pain, better consult an orthopaedic doctor , who can examine and if require will suggest an MRI.
