Hi,
First of all, you should do a CT brain to exclude a brain lesion. Second, when the blood vessels under the scalp are injured, the blood spread in the space from eyelids to the back of the head. The spread of the blood needs penicillin antibiotic to prevent being infected and stop the spread of infection in other parts of your body.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dr/Mustafa, Neurologist
