Please see your: doctor within the next 24 hours. This still could be related to your concussion. You need to have a neurologic exam if you haven't already and a follow-up one if you have. With a concussion, you also want to make sure you're resting physically(no sports/exercise) and resting your brain (which generally includes no screen time, i.e. computer,phone, TV, schoolwork) until all your symptoms are gone.

Headaches common: Headaches are the most common symptom of concussion. For most people who have had a concussion, if headaches occur they go away after a few weeks. In some people, headaches can persist even if all other symptoms of the concussion get better. If this happens to you, it is important to undergo a neurological examination. Regular sleep and safe exercise are essential for resolution of headaches.

See neurologist: After concussion some will develop "post concussion headaches", generalized poorly localized headaches. Usually nagging but not terrible. Others will develop trauma triggered migraine. See a neurologist for diagnosis and management
