How Many Days Will Take To Recover The Bump Cased By Falling Down?

My 2.5 years son had fallen from bed while asleep and got big bump on fore-head. I immediately took hom to doctor and he gave a medicine for swelling and asked to apply some ice pack on swelling. Its been 2 weeks now but the minor bump still remains but there isn t any pain. My worry is, is the bump going to stay or will take some more days to heal? He is behaving normally though.

Hello. I just read through your question. This is very common in this age group. It can take days to weeks for these bumps to disappear. As long as he is otherwise well and behaving normally, you do not have to worry and there is nothing to do.
