Hi,
Thanks for query
As you have normal sacn the reason of pain is local.
You had swelling on occipital region i.e back of your head due to accident.This is due to soft tissue injury or infection.
You should watch for any discharge or fluctuation around that area.if it is there there might be possibility of heamatoma.
Visit your doctor for follow up.
Thanks.
