HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, you have not mentioned the specific area of head that is being swelled because whole head can not be swelled without any specific pathological reason and it always have some serious clinical manifestation, still the only option is to get done the CT of head, else this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps.
