[|Human|] Hi, I fell off of the side of my bed and slammed the right side of my head on the ground resulting in sharp pain throughout my entire face/head. Ten minutes later i looked at the area and there is a lump on top of my right temple and it feels like i have a concussion. Is this dangerous to let heal on its own or should i see a doctor?
