Is Bump In Head After Hitting A Cause For Concern?
I fell from the bed yesterday and hit my head on the metal frame, it hurts then, my boyfriend put an ice pack on me but I have a bump at the spot now. I don't feel dizzy or blurred vision, just a tender spot. I'm worried because i hit the side of my head, and heard that's the worst place to hit one's head.

If you are otherwise feeling normal in yourself there is nothing to worry about.
It is just a bruise on your skull associated with some inflammation around the area.
If you feel anything out of the ordinary, I would go to the emergency department to get it checked out.
