Should I Meet A Doctor For Swelling In Forehead After Hitting Head?
I was taken down a cabinet from the wall and it hit the top of my head near the front of my forehead. I got a big lump I immediately put ice on my head. I noticed that my forehead swelled up somewhat. Do I need to see a doctor. I have been putting ice every 15 minutes and it has gone down some. YYYY@YYYY

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The swelling in the forehead is due to superficial bleeding and henatona formation. This is not worrisome. If there is no vomiting or headache then icing the area will help.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
