Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are having subcutaneous Hematoma over forehead. It has shifted towards right. Hematoma tend to shift under effect of gravity towards dependent parts. No need to worry it will gradually resolve in due course of time. Thrombophobe gel local application without rubbing is helpful in early resoLuton. Analgesic such as ibuprofen can be given to relieve pain. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you a good health. Take care.
