Suggest Treatment For Lump Under The Eye With ITP Disorder

I was punched in the face under my right eye and on the side of my face on my cheekbone. After it happened it got very swollen and it bruised. This happened around December 20th or so. The bruise is gone but there is still a significant lump under my eye and on the side of my face. I also have a blood disorder called ITP. I'm not sure if my disorder will cause the healing time to be longer than normal. My main concern is if the lump will ever go away.

Pediatric Surgeon 's  Response
Due to ITP, there will be problem in the coagulation of the blood and therefore, even with a small trivial injury there can be formation of a big hematoma which presents as a lump. And in case of ITP, it will take long time to resolve as compared to normal peers.
