How Can A Bruised Lump On The Forehead Be Treated?
My son was under a balance beam and stood up. Which resulted in hitting his forehead on the underneath of the balance beam. He has a goose egg with a dime size red blood/bruise. Its been 45 minutes and the goose egg hasnt decreased in size. Any advice?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Just apply ice pack to reduce inflammation, no specific treatment required until he is conscious and well.
Painkillers (Diclofenac) would suffice, give time for rest and inflammation to go down.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
