What Causes A Bump Around The Eye After An Injury?
My dog head butted me on the side of my eye, between my temple and eye socket, about a week ago. I had a large bump, which I iced and it went from the diameter of a quarter to the size of a pea. I eventually got a black eye which is improving, but the pea size bump has not changed since the first day. It is soft and it moves around. Can you tell me what it is and will it go away on its own?
