What Could Lump Formation After A Jaw Injury Indicate?
I was head butted by my horse. She caught me just under the cheekbone. I had bruising that I assume gravity caused to show up at the jaw. The bruising is long gone but now I have a fairly large sore lump in my cheek spanning between the cheekbone and jaw. What is it and what s caused it?

Dear Sir/Madam
I have gone through your query and read your symptoms.
In my opinion, this could be due to infection or hematoma collection, and in both the cases you will need to see your doctor, and ask him to get yourself investigated, as normally staff do not follow the recommendations of the concerned doctor, and prefer to follow whom they faith more.
I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
