What Causes Bruise Like Feel Causing Pressure On Left Side Of Scalp?

I have a bruise-like feeling on my scalp on the left side of the crown of my skull. I noticed it yesterday and it s persisted thought today. It s slightly worse, but only sensitive to touch/pressure or when I brush my hair. I do not recall bumping my head, but I guess it s possible I just don t recall.
