    When a toddler bangs his head, it could result in concussion. Should not let him sleep for a while because of this. Take him to the ER to get checked out.

    This is your call as a parent. We can't make the call, we aren't there, we don't know how severe this is. If you're concerned, then see a doctor. Better safe than sorry.

    If it were me, I wouldn't have even stopped to join a site and ask, I'd be at the doctors office already. But that's me. This is your call.

    I'm in agreement with both of the above experts. Any head injury could be serious. Better safe, than sorry.

    Serious head injuries are concussive and develop a lot of ongoing problems thereafter, so best to get a professional's opinion. I hope OP followed advise for little tyke.
