Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Can A Dent On The Forehead Caused By An Injury Be Treated?
My 14month tripped while running & fell into the edge of the door over 2weeks ago - he got a bruise & some swelling - ice was applied right away - but the bruise seems to still be there & it seems like his forehead is dented :-( will this correct itself or is the dent permeniate ??
I don't believe that the dentin forehead will be permanent. The bruising will increase in size and change colour as it heals. It can become greenish and yellowish as the hemoglobin changes and gradually go away.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
