Someone hugging me accidentally bumped my head. could i be at risk for brain bleeding? i did not lose consciousness; i have a pretty bad headache.

Head bump: Brain bleed or concussion is far down on the list of possibilities but please do see your doctor if you have a headache. He/she will diagnose and give you peace of mind. Sorry you got the bump but glad it was by hugging. Peace and good health.
