Before Easter my 3 yo DS collided with the edge of a screen at pre-school. It left a horrendous bruise. Now, 6 wks later, the bruising has almost all gone but there is a hard lump onder the skin which forms a big crease in his face when he talks/smiles. It's really altered the shape of his face. I took him to the GP 2 wks ago who was unconcerned - he's not in any pain - she said to re-visit if it shows no improvement in a month. Has anyone had any experience of this? Is the hardness scar tissue that will eventually dissolve? Thanks in advance.
