Hi,

It may be subcutaneous hematoma i.e. blood collected underneath the skin. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. There is no need to worry. It may vanish in two weeks. Apply cold compress which might enhance the improvement. Take tab vitamin C.

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

Regards,
Dr. Ilyas Patel, Dermatologist
