Is A Small Bump On Head Post A Hit A Cause For Concern?

Hello, I hit the left side of my head, above my ear on the inside of my car trunk on Saturdy, not paying attention to what I was doing. Of course, it really hurt and I have a small bump. I took tylenol on saturday night and then ibuprofen last night. Its not as sore but should i be concerned?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello there,

Have you been experiencing head ache or did you lose concoiusness post the hit to your head? If not you needn't be worried. The bump will resolve in time. To be on the safer side you can visit the ER and get an Xray done but in my opinion this is not necessary considering your case history.
Please write in of you have any further questions.
Take care.
