Suggest Remedy For Pressure In Head Due To Injury

I am a paramedic and was out partying with some friends Friday night. Did something really stupid and hit the back upper part of my head really hard. No loc. I have been feeling groggy since then. I notice that when I bend over to pick something up I have pressure where I hit my head. No pain just pressure. Really do not want to go to er but I am wondering if I should. No other s/s no n/v. I do have vertigo which I get all the time.. What do you think. I feel pressure right now where I hit my head.
