Advice for after a fall?

Last night (24 hours ago) I fell down 3 stone stairs in the rain landed hard on my buttocks and onto my thigh/hip.

I was initially in shock and a lot of pain but walked it off and went to bed. Today I've got a sore hip, feels muscular and my bottom has a rather large blue and purple bruise on it.

Issue is my ribs are incredibly sore now even though I landed upright and didn't injure them. What should I do about my aches and pains I was struggling at work today to get around and have been taking regular painkillers but it's only just taking the edge of the pain away I'm hobbling around like a 90 year old!!

You should probably go to A&E.
