Head Injury Symptoms
Signs and symptoms of head injuries vary with the type and severity of the injury.
Minor blunt head injuries may involve only symptoms of being "dazed" or brief loss of consciousness. They may result in headaches or blurring of vision or nausea and vomiting.
Severe blunt head trauma involves a loss of consciousness lasting from several minutes to many days or longer. Seizures may result. The person may suffer from severe and sometimes permanent neurological deficits or may die. Neurological deficits from head trauma resemble those seen in stroke and include paralysis, seizures, difficulty speaking, seeing, hearing, walking, or understanding.
Penetrating trauma may cause immediate, severe symptoms or only minor symptoms despite a potentially life-threatening injury. Death may follow from the initial injury. Any of the signs of serious blunt head trauma may result.
What happens after a head injury?
It's normal to have a headache and nausea, and feel dizzy right after a head injury. Other symptoms include ringing in the ears, neck pain, and feeling anxious, upset, irritable, depressed or tired.
The person who has had a head injury may also have problems concentrating, remembering things, putting thoughts together or doing more than one thing at a time.
These symptoms usually go away in a few weeks, but may go on for over a year if the injury was severe.

You're PROBABLY fine. I mean its not like you got hit by a car or anything. But just keep this in mind, especially for in the future, we all have gotten a head injury at one point and thought, "eh, I'm fine." but sometimes we really do need medical attention. My intention wasn't to scare you or diagnose you.
