Hard Lump Under Skin Below The Outside Corner Of Eye. Had Hit On The Cheek Bone The Earlier Week. Cause?
My 6 year old son had a toboganning accident and struck his right eye/cheekbone very hard against another kid s sled. He had a severely bruised eye/cheek with a lot of swelling . The family doctor said it was fine and tested his eye movement and cheek bone etc. It all appeared to heal up fine. But now, about three-four weeks later, there is a very hard lump under the skin below the outside corner of his eye, at the top of the cheek bone. It is about the size of a bean and can move around a bit under the skin. It doesn t hurt him.

Hard Lump Under Skin Below The Outside Corner Of Eye. Had Hit On The Cheek Bone The Earlier Week. Cause?
Hello, Thanks for writing to us. I would advice you to get a thorough clinical evaluation as well as radiological investigation done. If there is fracture of jaws,inter maxillary fixation has to be done. Antibiotics has to be administered along with analgesics. Frequent cold packs has to be administered. Hope this helps.
