Hit head on fridge door 23 days after hair transplant. There’s redness and some swelling. Have I damaged grafts? (photos)

HTGLA2018
Please see attached photos. I hit my head on the fridge door, 23 days after hair transplant. There was no noticeable bleeding, but there’s dark redness and some swelling. Have I damaged my grafts and can this bump impact hair growth long term? Thanks for any help.
