Solution

The sentence given wants to convey that except for a bump on the head, the person hasn't suffered any other injury. Since 'in spite of' is used to convey two contrasting ideas, it is incorrectly used. However, the phrasal preposition 'apart from' is used mean 'except for' something. Therefore, it is the correct answer.
