5-month-old Spot Injury, Please Help

I was getting up with my 5-month-old dd and when I got up I accidently hit her head on the corner of the cabinet door. I had just got done feeding her and she was getting sleepy so I was getting up and forgot that I had left the cabinet door open and when I did I accidently hit her head on the corner. It happened about 1/2 inch in front of her soft spot and scratched past the soft spot to about an inch passed it.(over top the soft spot). The scratch isn t deep it was white. She showed no signs or symptoms of head trauma (pupils dilated evenly, no vomiting or unconsciousness, she immediately cried afterward, and showed no signs of fussy except for the usual for being sleepy. I feel so terrible. What should I watch for. I ve tried google with little luck. Please help.
