Is A Bruised Lump On The Forehead A Cause For Concern?

Hello, while slamming a car door shut yesterday I almost dropped what I had in my hand and didn t get out of the way before trying to grab it. Door corner right into my temple. I we surprised that it didn t hurt as much as I expected. But when I looked in the mirror it was a huge bump with a little broken skin. I kept ice on it all night, but today it s still raised and really really bruised. I ve felt light headed and a little confused all day. What do I do? Is this urgent or normal? Thank you
