Suggest Treatment For A Large Lump On The Head Of A Child

My daughter hit her head two weeks ago and had three staples put in. Last week she had them removed. She just hit her head on a worsen chair in the exact same spot. There is now a huge knot under the scab. Is this just a second hematoma or should I be worried?
