A member asked:
I hit the side of my head with the microwave door and it left about a fingertip sized bump, is there anything i should be worried about or pay attention to?

There is little chance of a serious injury from the mechanism you described. Symptoms that would cause concern are severe headache, uncontrollable vomiting, change in mental status. Otherwise, apply ice to the swollen area and it should heal in a day or two.
