Cautious optimism-: A few punches to the head is a loaded phrase and without more details on the characteristics of the headache, it's hard to give you straightforward answer. One approach-if the headache is getting better, then just monitor yourself; if it gets worse, see a healthcare professional sooner than later. It would be a good idea to refrain from getting punched in the head for the time being as well.
