What Is Lump In Chin After Being Boxed?

I am 26 years old, 5 foot 11, 205 pounds and have diabetes type 1. No allergies no other medical history. About a week ago today I was involved in a drunken fight with my room mate and he called me on in the back deck. Not thinking he was going to do anything but just threaten me I step out and next thing I know he swings a punch at him and hits me square in the chin. I get knocked out, police were called etc. Anyway I have a huge bruise on my chin and it's slowly going away but I noticed when I touch my chin there is a lump on the left side of my chin where I got hit. it doesn't hurt when I touch it, just feels like a lump. is that bad? Will it go away in time or do I need to see a doctor?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have history of trauma. So there is high chance of developing hematoma. It is due to extravasation of blood. You should take anti inflammatory plus analgesic drug. Drugs like Chymoral forte is helpful to reduce the swelling. This all drugs are prescription based medicine so consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
