Is It Normal To Have Bruising On The Head Due To Fainting?

This morning i fainted and hit my head. After seeing a doctor she said i was fine but i was going to feel pain in my head from the banging. My concern is that when i touch the spot in my head where i hit it, it hurts, almost feels like when you touch a bruise. what is that or what does that mean?
