Is Pink Head For Short Time After Getting Hit On Head Serious?

My 3 month old baby got hit in the head when I put him in a jumpy thing that was not put together properly. The leg flipped up and hit him in the head. his head was pink for an hour but didn t swell. He seems okay but I am worried, what should I watch out for?
