Hi user
Swelling after injury is usually due collection of blood (hematoma). Small hematoma (swelling) usually resolves spontaneously over time but resolution of pain takes little longer and moralization of skin color takes much more time.
All changes happen naturally and does not require any intervention ecept pain killer to relieve pain.
If you are having unusual headache, persistent headache any other symptoms related to brain or vomiting then only imaging of brain will be required
Hope this helps, wish you best health
