Hello,
The big knot could be local bleeding between tissues. In such case, it will take a couple of weeks to disappear. Anyway, if this does not happen, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and an X-ray study of the scull.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
