What Causes Bump On Head After Injury?

I got it in the head really hard with a door and I got a big goose egg bump on my head (that's what the perimedics said) and I got a CT scan and they said I was fine but i haven't wanted to eat anything and the bump is mushy now. I don't have any other problems at all. I can see fine and stuff like that. I just want to know if the mushy-ness is normal?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

The softness of the bump would be related to the break down of the blood and other products present.

It should continue to break down and become smaller though in some cases, especially after severe injury, a small lesion will still remain.

I hope this helps
