How Long Does Bump Caused By Injury On Forehead Take To Subside?

My daughter walked into the corner of the kitchen counter and had a small bump on the brow/temple area and it became a little less noticeable but never completely went away. It doesn't seem to bother her and she has been to the Doctor several times for other reasons and it was never noticed or brought up but I am starting to wonder if it should be a concern because the initial injury was many months ago now...

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The bump caused following injury on forehead can be because of the fractured bone which is not unioned fractured bone or it can be a fibrosed scar. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral maxillofacial surgeon and get it evaluated. It cannot be corrected now, since it is already healed in that position. If it is esthtically bothering, then we can do correct this by surgery.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
