Hi my son fell on the bed yesterday and head his head on the bottom of his jumper toy.. he has a very tiny black and blue mark and like the tip of your finger but he has a little depression in his forehead a little above his eye where he hit his head. He is acting normal and the swelling went down, but there is still a little swelling like there is fluid. should i be concerned of brain damage
