It wasent really bleeding so I went about my day now its the next day and I have been throwing up and feeling really overheated and just feeling pretty crapy...

dear ryde, hello
when your hand banged on the electric box with a strong impact, it can result in injury called concussion. It can result in some confusion, irritation , tramsient memory loss, headache ,etc.
This condition usually resolves by itself by giving proper rest to body- both physical and cognitive.
but if your problem persists, contact medical advice immediately.
Thanks.
