Concussion : It sounds like you have a mild concussion . As long as your headache does not worsen and you don't develop vision or balance change or persistent vomiting you should be ok. Take Ibuprofen or tylenol, (acetaminophen) ice your bumped area and rest. Seek care right away if any of the above changes occur but i really think you are going to be ok.
