Legal Question in Personal Injury in Georgia

Fell at grocery store

I fell on a wet mat upon exiting the grocery store. The workers had to help me to a sit b/c my foot was swelling instantly. The mgr on duty wrote a accident report. I went to the ER and the Dr said I had a foot contusion(deep tissue injury). What steps do I need to take now? That mat was soaking wet. It should have been removed. There were no signs saying it was wet. I had to miss work b/c I could not hop around my job for 8hr. I now have to wear a shoe boot until my foot is better. I took pic of my swollen foot but I was not able to take pic of the scene b/c I was in tears and pain at that time. I just need info on what steps I need to take now. Thanks!
