Nerve pullng sensatn head

Question

Asked for Female, 31 Years

Hit my forehead with the sharp edge of a utensil while trying to bring it down from an upper shelf. A very small amount of blood was there. But after that, there is no sensation from the forehead to the middle of the head in a V shaped area. Plus, the slightest touch at the injury spot is leading to a sensation as if a nerve is getting pulled from the middle of the head up to the injury spot on the forehead. Not being able to meet a doc as husband is not in India till Tues, it happened last Wednesday. Kindly suggest what I should be considering.
