Bruised Heel?

I was playing basket ball and came down hard on my right heel. My heel feels very tender now and I cannot put any pressure or weight on it at all. I have to hobble around on my toes. What is the estimated healing time for this type of injury and what do you recommend as far as speeding up that process?

Thank You,
Aaron Short
