I know how you feel, alternating ice to heat really does the trick!! I just hyperextended my knee in gymnastics, and that really stopped the swelling! I hope you feel better!

That happened before to my gf when I accidentally hit her in the eye and hers got swollen and black. Apply an ice pack 2-3 times daily to reduce the swelling. It should heal up between 3-5 days if the swelling isn't too serious.
