Since this is a very delicate part of the male anatomy, I'd recommend going to your dr. Especially since you're swollen. Bruising happens when tiny blood vessels are damaged or broken.
I'd go make sure everything is the way it should be.

I had the same thing happen a couple years ago... I was on a downhill and clipped a root causing an unfortunate meeting with my top tube.
I too had swelling and called the doc; he said that I needed to ice "them" for 20 minuets every hour for the first day, if the swelling didn't go down within 24 hours,I needed to go in for a check up. The next day they didn't feel great, but they were a little better so I skipped the check up, by the next week I was pretty much 100% and haven't had any repercussions since.
I'll tell you this, when it comes to that part of the anatomy, when in doubt, get to the doc's office. It's just not worth messing around with.

see a doctor, if you have damaged one or both of them it may have increased your chances of getting cancer or infection.
