What Causes A Lump On The Forehead Above The Right Eye?

my husband just came in with a large "goose egg" on his forehead above his right eye. He was catching kid's pitches and said the ball "just grazed me- it didn't really even hurt". He feels fine, no headache, no nausea and his pupils are equal. He has an icepack on it now. Do I need to make him go to the ER/medical clinic tonight?
