Hello dear,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com. If you would have presented to me as an outpatient,I would have advised you to be reassured as a liittle child's slap on head is unrealistic to cause severe injury in brain,critical enough to result into sudden onset headache.Moreover,your sharp pains are not persistent and resolved completely two days later.So,what I can say is that it is anxiety rather than any true pathology which is causing these sharp pains.Please be reassured and mentally relaxed.Hope it helps.
