About three weeks ago, i got my wrist slammed with a metal door, while goofing around with my friends. since than, a bruise came and went. But on my wrist, there still is a bump on top of one of my veins. Now it isnt a bigl bump, and I could only notice it if I bent my wrist back, and rub my finger down the general location.
I've noticed before and after the injury, that if I sit for too long at a certain position or if I fall alseep on my arm, it gets numb for about 5 mintues. Should I be worried about a blood clot?

I don't think so. I just think inside a scar was made and that is what is there. I fainted once and my teeth hit the inside of my bottom lip and now I can feel something in there all the time, like it made a scar inside or behind the skin. I don't think it's a big deal.

Probably not, but you might want to go to a doctor to be certain.
It's probably some minor injuries to the tissue under the skin. You are worried about it and that could be inflating the symptoms in your imagination.
These injuries are common enough that the body deals fairly efficiently with them. It never hurts to be sure, though, so a trip to a doctor wouldn't hurt.
I don't think it's a blood clot.

No - a clot is not a consideration. Don't worry. It will probably go away (be absorbed) in due time. Arm goes to sleep because of lack of circulation caused by compression of blood vessels/nerves. No big deal. Relax.
