Brief Answer:
No serious injury likely

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

a serious injury would have caused swelling and pain. If no cuts or bruises are present (and no significant pain) then the injury is likely a minor one.

I hope I've helped! Contact me again, if you'd like more information.

Kind Regards!
