Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My daughter had a small lump under her skin with a small surface bruise. It started about a month ago. The lump is gone but the surface bruise remains. Is this something I should have a dermatologist check or any ideas on what something like that may be? Thank you.

HI
Thanks for posting your query.
It could be due to fungal infection or a skin disease which needs to be evaluated . Because 1 month is a long time and if it is persisting for such long period it needs evaluation.
Kindly upload the picture so that I can see it and let you know what it is . Or else kindly consult a dermatologist.
Hope this helps . Any clarifications feel free to ask .
Regards.
