Can Bruising Below The Eye Be Due To Bleeding In The Brain Due To An Accident?

On Friday I suffered a blow to the forehead that resulted in six stitches at the top corner of my forehead. On Sunday night, bruising occurred below my eye. I have been in very little pain, even though the only thing I was prescribed was Naproxen. It s been 5 days since the accident. Could I still potentially have bleeding in my brain? Never lost consciousness and there was no vomiting or bleeding from anywhere except the open wound. Do I need a CT scan?
