What Is The Cause Of Hard Bump Over The Left Eye?

I went to a concert about a month and a half ago, I got hit in my left eye by the drumstick the drummer threw twice, I don't have any pain from it. However I have a hard bump over my left eye, I can see fine but it hasn't shown any signs of it going back to normal. What do I do?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having a hard bump over left eye following a injury.
This is because of collection of blood in the layers of skin and is called as hematoma.
This usually resolves over 3-6 weeks.
If you are not having pain, redness then no need to worry. Applying cold compression will help in resolution of the symptoms.

Thank you
