Frequent bruising and hematoma

A 5 year-old girl (adopted) brought by her mother with frequent bruising and severe periorbital hematoma after laceration of left eyebrow. Mother tells the clinician that her daughter cut her left eyebrow with scissors 2 weeks ago. For 2-4 days, it looked as it was healing well and then it looked like fresh bleeding at the injury site. This cycle of healing and worsening repeated but the wound still does not seem healing.
