What Causes Lump On Forehead Along With Puffy Eyes?

Hi, I bumped my head (quite hard) on Friday and it immediately was a huge egg like bump on the left side of my forehead. I applied ice for a couple hours after and woke up the next day to find the swelling had gone down from the egg shape but spread across my forehead, so instead of it being on one side of my head, it was across the whole of the center of my forehead. I applied more ice last night and today have woken up and the swelling on my forehead has reduced (still some there) and now my nose/eyes are puffy. I have a graze on my nose so did knock this at the time also. Is this normal? I had a slight headache on Saturday morning but it soon passed and have had no memory loss, blurred vision, nausea or headaches, etc since. My head just feels a little heavy (i m guessing due to the swelling) any advice?? Thank you

HI
Well come to HCM
Head injury should never be taken lightly but it need to be immediately investigated and need to be kept under observation, here chances of internal bleeding (Formation of hematoma ) is very likely and it could be infection too, it is advisable to see the ER, hope this information helps, take care.
