Hi, its difficult to tell what the swelling is due to, considering the injury it could be a hematoma. It could also be an abscess. You will need to consult your doctor, who may ask for an X ray to ***** the spine, if needed he may even ask for a CT scan, please consult  him for an evaluation. Regards.
