How To Treat A Knuckle Lump Caused By Injury?

Hello, Im a 21 year old girl, and I was in a fight recently. But as I was at the time intoxicated as I went to hit the other person (in defense of a friend) I missed and hit a fence, my hand was badly bruised but nothing seems broken, I havent been to a doctor but now I am worried as between my index finger and middle finger s knuckles, there is a hard lump that hurts to touch and feels like bone, its right up next to my middle finger knuckle. I don t know what to do about it. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi,Dear,
Thanks for the query to HCM. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns.
Treatment for knuckle lump in throat and headache-
Consult ER ortho-surgeon,
Elevate and Rest the traumatised hand.
Painkillers and anti-inflammatory-1tab x 2 times for 5 days
Xray of the hand.
That is what you could urgently.
This advise is based on the facts from the history you give and needs further clinical check.
So don't build up wrong concepts and create more psychic complications in you which would increase risks and costs to you, but just ask a query to HCM and be comfortable to resolve your health issues.
Welcome for any more query in this regard to HCM.
Write good resume and Click thanks if you feel satisfied with my advise.
Have a Good Day.
