Hi, My 3 year old just developed a Red raised buepm aroud the outer corner of her left eye( on the skin) as if she had bumped her face against some thing. It doesn t hurt to palpation and that s what concerns me( the fact that it doesn t hurt to touch and pressure)
Hi....by what you quote I feel that the kid might be having a bleeding disorder, either congenital or acquired... Mostly congenital, considering the age of presentation. The bluish discoloration you are noticing is a subcutaneous bleed or bruise and the small lump you are able to palpate is a subcutaneous blood clot. Your child needs evaluation and I suggest you take her to the nearest emergency room as soon as possible. This I am suggesting because - if the kid has a spontaneous bleeding like this internally, as she might require emergency blood products. Regards -
