Dropped long table against my leg 16 days ago.still have bruise, lump and feels hot to the touch.also, some surface numbness.is that normal?

Could be: You may have actually bruised the bone and/or hurt the nerve. "bone bruising" and swelling can cause compression on the nerve and cause the numbness. You can see your doctor if it persists, but these injuries can take a while to to resolve.
