You have: treated the injury correctly....further treatment in the absence of other symptoms at ONE WEEK after injury is not necessary! Hope this helps! Dr Z

Scalp hematoma: Area is bruised, and will take time to fully resolve. If you feel sick, have your doctor evaluate.

Slight hit to the side of the head. No visual bruise, no bump. No symptoms. The area is just sore. How long will the soreness last?
