I was hit in the left temple with the zipper of a jacket. it's metal and was a hard hit. is this okay?

Head trauma: Just being hit in the head with an object does not mean there is a serious injury. Some common symptoms that could mean a more serious problem include persistent headache, dizziness, loss of consciousness, vomiting or vision changes. Without any symptoms you should be fine.
