How Can A Swollen Bump On The Temple Be Treated?

Hello I was sucker punched a few weeks ago in the temple. It immediately created a fluid filled bump. I have seen them occur in MMA. I figured that it was just swelling from the impact of a knuckle but even weeks later I still have a bump on my temple. It has gone down but it is still noticeable and the bump is very hard.

Hi,

It is due to soft tissue injury. Apply local oil and that will go away.That hard lump can be due to blood clot over there.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhadresh Lakhani
