Three days ago my 23 year old son hit his head on a steal beam. Went to the doctor and had the gash glued, but now it is pussing and he sleeps all of the time, has bad headaches, and getting dark circles around eyes and lips are turning a little purplish. should I be concerned?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If you feel his level of alertness is reduced, slow, or in any other way, not normal (even taking into consideration the bump on the head) then, I would take him for an examination to the closest ER or Urgent Care.
Hope I have answered your query.
