Hello
Welcome to Health care magic
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having hemorrhage into the skin of the eyelids.
The commonest cause for this is trauma as told by you.
But sometimes it can occur spontaneously also
In these cases we need to rule out conditions like diabetes, hypertension, bleeding and clotting diseases.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for evaluation regarding this.
This haemorrhage does not require treatment and will resolve by 3-4 weeks.
Applying cold compression will be of help.
Hope I have answered your question and the information is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.
Thank you
