The nmemonic for this type of injury is RICE. Rest (the hand), Ice, Compression (ace bandage wrap), Elevation. If it's swollen that bad, I presume you've been to the doc and had an x-ray?
I wrapped it with an ice pack and later in the day used hot water. I didn't go to the doc because I am some what of an expert on broken bones having broken both legs, my left arm, fingers, toes and collar bones, etc. I knew it was a soft tissue injury and that it would recover in a few days and it is much better today. The swelling has gone down and I am planning on riding today.
