What Causes A Lump On The Leg After A Fall In A Child?
Hi my 3 year old daughter fell over around 3weeks ago and had a lump and bruise on her shin she didn t cry or seem bothered but after 3weeks the lump is still there she says it doesn t hurt but im wondering how long until it goes or should I get it seen to? Its not visible but when you touch it its pretty big and very hard. Any advice would be greatful. Thank you Hayley

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
It seems to be a clotted blood and it might even take weeks to go and it will gradually get absorbed. Do not worry.
