Why Made A Bump Turn Squishy?

Hi, so today my little brother was sitting on a cart in Abertsons, and fell forward. We made sure he had no concussion, but he has a monster sized bump on his forehead, and we treated it with ice and everything. And a few hours later his bump is squishy. What does this mean? Thank you!
By the way, he is acting normally, no signs of concussion or brain injury.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and from the history given here I could say that this could be a collection of blood or serous material which is usually release after the injury to soft tissue and this would come around no need to worry about this, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
