How To Cure Bruise On Forehead?
I hit my forhead really hard last Thursday on a heavy glass door. Of course I have a huge kinda squishy bruise where i hit my forhead. I was more embarrassed then anything, but today I'm not feeling good, head hurts, very sleepy and nause. Should I be concerned.

Hello,
Thanks for your query.
Usually after any head injury, if there are no ear/nose bleeds or clear fluid draining from nose or seizures or altered consciousness, there is nothing much to worry.
Bump and bruise will happen at the site of injury. You should give cold compresses and motrin.
But the indentation is not seen unless the underlying bone is injured.
So I would suggest you to see a doctor and get reassured.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
