See a doctor: There are some complications to head trauma that can show up weeks later. It is very important that you see a doctor as soon as possible. You will probably need a CT or MRI of your brain.

Concussion: There are a wide range of symptoms that can be attributed to mild head injuries &/or concussion. It is very important to appropriately rest your brain (avoiding alcohol, screen time, physical exertion; allowing rest + time off work/sports). You could have a live video consult via Smarthealth +/- check this website https://www.brain-injury.org.nz/html/concussion.html or visit your GP.
