I hit the back of my head with the upper part of my car door about 5 hrs ago (5:00pm) i have a small welt n its really sore, should i worry?

Nope: It's a scalp hematoma and just needs ice and rest. God was smart when he made the skull....It is thick in the front and the back. If you have nausea, vomiting, or dizziness, you could have a concussion and you may need to see your doc.
