You can observe for vomiting , unbearable headache and loss of consciousness. If all these symptoms not present for next 48 hours you need not worry.
If you were my patient here i would give you short duration pain killer with local antiedema measures .I would order CT scan brain to rule out any damage to brain following injury.
