Possibly: In all likelihood you are okay with some soft tissue injury since you are not describing symptoms of worse conditions like sleepiness, nausea, vomiting, loss of conscious . However you should at least get examined t make sure everything is okay. I would go to the ER or your private doctor and see their recommendations
