What Causes A Lump On The Cheek Of A Child After An Injury?
Hi my 2 year old got hit in the face by a 5 year old while playing outside one month ago & still has the bruise. It went down but you can still see a little purple color bruising on the cheek & has a hard knot/lump inside. what could this be. Why hasn t it gone away yet it s been a month & I m getting scared???
Hi...there is nothing to worry. It could just be a blood clot are otherwise called as hematoma which is getting organised. It will get absorbed by itself in due course of time you need not worry about this. Regards - Dr. Sumanth
