Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Hi, I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
Any head injury needs evaluation by history and examination to rule out any bleed that could have occurred.
I would like to know a few more details:
1. Did you got unconscious after fall or head injury?
2. Any bleeding from Ear, Nose?
3. Any seizure?
4. Any weakness on any side of body?
5. Any blurring of vision?
6. Any throbbing headache?
7. Did you get a CT scan done yet? If so please upload the reports.

This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any other query, you may please ask me and answer these questions preferably in point wise manner.
