Is A Tiny Lump On The Forehead, Caused By A Fall, A Concern?
My son fel and hit his head on the floor some three weeks ago. There was initial swelling and a bruise to the right side of his forehead. The bruise seems to have gone, but there s still a tiny lump which I can feel when I touch his forehead. It doesn t bother him and he doesn t seem to notice it s there, but Should I be concerned?

Hello,
Minor hematoma changes after injury through fall. Though not of much panic or concern, I would recommend an ice application over the same three times a day and keep a watch on the same as it may get infection if not resolved over a period of time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
