                        I accidentally slipped on my Italian tile bathroom floor yesterday morning.  Moisture had formed on the floor from steam coming from someone taking a shower shortly before.  I did not know or expect that the floor tile was wet.  As I stepped down a stair to go into the bathroom area, my feet came out from under me and I went flying down.  Unfortunately, there was one of those metal toilet paper holders that stand upright there, and the side of my face hit it as I fell, breaking the metal arm in half.  My face is very sore, I am afraid to swallow on that side because it irritates it.  I put ice on my face immediately, but it seems to worsen the matter.  My chin and ear areas today are so dark red and black that it looks like I have been beaten up by someone.  Do you have any suggestions on how I can get the bruises to lighten up and not hurt so much?
