Bump for orthopedic surgeon.

Mine was a knee but required surgery to fix. I suspect that you will need an MRI. It is my experience that torn soft tissue can indicate other tears that are not as visible to an external examination.

+1 to this.
And, the original X-ray may have missed a fracture. An MRI will give a lot more info.
