Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have history of trauma. So you may have haematoma formation. You should go for x ray local part to rule out bone damage. Take anti inflammatory and analgesic drug and apply ice. Haematoma will disappear within few days. If you have bony injury then you should 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.
