    When in doubt, remember RICE - Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.

    Yup - keep it elevated tonight, and just keep an eye on it to make sure it's not too black-and-blue or swollen. Wrap it tight with an ace bandage tomorrow for support while you're on your trip, you don;t want to exacerbate any damage!

    Thanks for the advice, it just went a little painful again when i came out the shower. It isn't swollen or bruised, but i will certainly rest it. The perfect excuse to get out of room tidying and washng up!!!!
