General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, yes these symptoms are due to blood collection under the skin due to blow effect, termed as hematoma. Small/minimal hematoma gets resolved by itself in few days, but if the headache persists or if you have dizziness and black eye, its wise to consult the doctor and get the CT done to rule out ant complications.
Hope this might help!
