Bruise: Sounds like your temple muscle is bruised and swollen. Maybe a small hematoma (collection of blood). It is possible to have a concussion without loss of consciousness but there would be other symptoms. If it gets worse or not improved in a few days then see your doctor.

Probably contusion: Probably a muscle contusion. It does not sound like you're having significant symptoms and these take a while to fully resolve. At this point it does not sound like something that you need to worry about.
