Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The hard bump on the head can be secondary to inflammatory response to the trauma. The other possible cause can be a fractured frontal bone. Nothing to be panic, consult an oral and maxillofacial surgeon and get it evaluated. You need to get radiographs like PA view and CT scan done done to confirm the diagnosis. once the diagnosis is confirmed, we can manage accordingly. Mean while you can take an anti inflammatory drug like serratiopeptidase (if you are not allergic)
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
