Severe Headache. Got Hit On Head Last Day. What Should Be Done?

Last night I was reaching down to get something out of the refridgerator and when I stood up the top freezer door somehow opened up and I hit the top right side of my head really hard. I did not loose consciousness, didn't get or feel sick, my pupils are fine but did get a bump on my head. Today I have a really bad headache that doesn't seem to go away. What should I do?

analgesics and anti inflamatory tabs for pain
