Infant Hit Her Head, Soft Area On Head Sunked Inside. Will It Cause Injury?

Hi, I am a mother of an one-year-old, today when I carried her from the high chair, her head s front soft spot accidentally hit my my jaw. Then I felt her head to check if her soft spot was ok, and I found her soft spot was sunken in. She didn t cry at all and behaves normally ever since, and the sunken soft spot went back to normal after a short while. But I still can t stop worrying about it. Could you please tell me if that kind of hit could possibly bring injury? Thank you!
