Hit my head on cabinet

Question

Asked for Female, 25 Years

I hit my heading on the corner of my cabinet getting into the shower. I instantly got a big bump on my head. I am not really experiencing any other symptoms besides the bump and pain at the site and minor headache. Should I go to the ER or just ice it?

Hi , the bump on your head is the reaction to the trauma which caused it and it’s pretty much normal to get bump. It’s an inflammation which should go in 2-3 days. May I know where exactly you hit your head ? If you need further help reach out to me via consult.
