My wrist has a weird shape?

So, a couple of years ago I fell on my wrist and it hurt super bad but after about 3-4 months the pain went away but now there are these two swollen bumps on my wrist that hurt when I put pressure on them!

You likely broke a bone or tore a ligament. Please see your doc and get an exam and an X-ray. IF A JOINT OR MUSCLE INJURY IS NOT MORE THAN HALF BETTER IN 7 DAYS,GO TO YOUR DOC! I had to do a SALVAGE procedure on an 18-year-old who had a wrist injury that was neglected. He will never be able to use his wrist fully again. How is your wrist function?
