Why The Bump Is Not Getting Cured Which Is Formed Followed By A Fall?
hi, my almost 3 year old son fell and hit his forehead hard when he was just a year and a half, he has a swelling after the fall and was generally okay, but almost a year after he still has this little dent on his forehead whenever he smiles or cry. i am worried, shouldn t this small dent be gone by now?
