Hi.... If you post a pic of the swelling that would be usefull.. It is very unlikely that swelling persisting for one year after a trivial trauma...it may normal skull you are feeling... If u r still doubtful u can go for ultrasound scan of the swelling area which is less expensive and there will be no radiation at all..
