What Causes A Large Lump On Forehead And Occasional Headache Post An Injury?

Consult and visit a neurologist if danger signs as mentioned are present
Detailed Answer:
Hello Boksanen,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Head injury due to such fall is usually trivial and does not require any neuroimaging.
Imaging of brain is indicated if head injury is severe , associated with loss of consciousness, seizures, weakness, bleeding through nose or ear.
Mild tenderness over the impact region may persist for few weeks.
In older age, possibility of subarachnoid bleeding after an asymptomatic period may occur and person should be watchful for any persistent headache, vomiting, impairment of consciousness or motor weakness.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Do get back to me for further queries.
Regards
Dr N Kumar
