Child Has Clot Between Ear And Eye, Soft To Touch. No Reduction In Size. Normal?

Hi, My daughter is 4 years old, One year back, she fell down from bed and later got a small clot under skin. This is a circular one, soft on touch and lies between right eye and ear. We visited doctor and they told it would go away on its own in 3-4 months, but it has been one year, and its still there. Size also is not reduced. Though she does not show any wrong symptoms and is perfectly normal, should we visit doctor and test again?

No,it is not normal!
The clot will not remain unchanged for a year!
The original diagnosis of clot may be wrong ???!!
Better to consult the doctor again,even if no symptoms!
You will have peace of mind!
