What Causes Lump On Chin Following Head Collision?
A couple months ago i had a head collision in my footy match. i ended up with a nasty bruise on my chin and on the inside of my lip. I went to the hospital and they said it was fine just bruising for a few weeks. However the bruising has gone i now have a lump on my chin that makes my smile crooked ! will it go away ? ?

Hi...thanks for asking question here in this forum....
Most of the time after collision or trauma forigen bodies remains in the tissue...but in your case i think it was not an open injury....so its seems like there is accumulation of blood in the soft tissue(haematoma) which is hardend to give the feelings of lump...mostly this resolve in some time...even then if you want to consult the surgeon it will be good...thanks
