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.
What Causes A Hard Lump On The Forehead After An Injury?
I banged my forehead just above my eyebrow 8 weeks ago- a egg shaped lump formed and then went down quite quickly, but now after 8weeks I m left with a penny sized hard lump under my skin- you can see it risen in certain lights and can definitely feel it- should I get it checked out?
It must be from the injury that left a haematoma in the region, and should soon subside. Although 8 weeks is long enough, and if you do not see it albeit slowly reducing, only then visit a doctor who will assist in removal.
Best wishes.
