Yeah, if it's swollen you could try putting ice on it (with a damp towel between the ice and your skin) or if it feels more like the muscles you could use a heat pad. Don't use ice for longer than 15mins in every hour.
If it doesn't start improving or worsens over the next few days then get t checked out. Though GP surgeries may not be open as much over the new yr and they def won't be open on new yrs day, they will have out of hours GPs which you can arrange to see as well as A&E if you really feel you're having serious problems with it.
