My daughter was hit in the cheek with a metal baseball bat. 3 weeks have now passed and there is a...?
"knot" under her skin where the main point of impact was. It is still bruised after all this time, and still tender to the touch. When she smiles, that part on her cheek dimples in a little bit. My question is, will this ever go away? Has anyone ever had similar facial trauma and had that "knot" go away? Serious answers only please. Thanks

Don't worry, darling. I know you must be scared for your daughter. But the good news is that this "knot" won't last forever.
My little cousin once fell down a wooden staircase and bruised her knee. When I went to check it, it seemed like it was only irritated skin tissue since i couldn't detect any dark-blue color. Later on that night she had some sort of "bump," kind of similar to one you might get when you hit your head. This is caused by a moderate-to-severe muscle injury and appears approximately 12-48 hours after trauma occurs (depending on the part of body, though, it can vary.) It can last for any amount of time, but giving your daughter an ice pack and elevating her pillow before bedtime can speed healing.
If you have any further concerns, though, be sure to consult your daughter's doctor or nurse. If she feels any more pain for an extended amount of time, her doctor or pharmacist can subscribe her some meds and suggestions to nullify the pain.
Best wishes for you and your daughter,
