Dimples Have Formed After Been Hit On Cheek By A Swing. Should I Be Concerned?

My 5 yr old son got hit in the cheek really hard by his cousin on a swing. He had a bruise for a week or so. It's gone, he doesn't complain of pain or anything but he now has a dimple there he didn't have before. Should I be concerned? Could the hit have caused the dimple?

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day


As the trauma is more than 7 days old, and as the lesion is healed clinically there seems to be no need of concern.


In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.

Wishing you happy and healthy life

Take Care
