Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Possibly you have an organised hematoma on your chin. This might take a long time get absorbed. However, sometimes it get calcified, and in that case might persist for life. I would suggest you to show yourself to a maxillo-fascial surgeon for further opinion and needful.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
