What Is The Treatment For Bruising Under My Child' Eye?

My daughter bumped her forehead on a door. Cried for a bit but went back to playing like ten minutes later. It's been two days and today I noticed bruising under her eye. On the skin. On the side she bumped her head. She doesn't complain. I press on it ask if it hurts she says no. Should I take her to the doctor?

Pediatrician 's  Response
If she is otherwise ok, there is no need to rush to the doctor. You can anticipate the bruise lasting several days. It may change form, color, and may even move to a nearby location. But, again, as long as your daughter is otherwise fine, you have no need for concern.
