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.
