Large Lump Above Hip Bone After Falling Down. Is This A Cause For Concern?

Hi, my 12 yes old daughter has a nasty fall at school and a large area was bruised on her side, just above the hip bone which was very painful to touch. Now the bruising is gone but noticed that there is a hard lump sort of about half an inch below the skin.

Should I be worried???
Thanks.
