Q: i got punched on the right side of my face , now there is a knot and it really hurt , what could it be?

: These are usually collections of blood deep in the tissues that stretch local nerve fibers causing pain. A Local cool compress can decrease the pain if needed. They will often self-heal over time. If it is preventing your ability to work/function, have it looked at.
