Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Based on the symptoms, you seem to have suffered a mild head injury and there is no need to worry at present.
For symptom relief, you can take analgesics such as ibuprofen or diclofenac. For relief from dizziness, you can take betahistine.
Your symptoms should settle down in a few days.
Wishing you good health,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM (Neurology)
