Do not worry: Sounds like you are recovering nicely, and have suffered no significant injury.

Bump on head: The hard bump is not surprising if you bumped your head pretty hard. If there are really petechiae that would be odd but possible. Are you sure it is not scar or redness from the original wound if there was one?
