Without evaluating him and figuring out why he cannot fall asleep, we can't give any specific recommendations. He should touch base with a physician in person or virtually to discuss more.

This may be a transient effect of a closed head injury, and if so, there is little reason for concern. But if increasing headache, dizziness or imbalance, blurred or double vision, nausea and/ or vomiting, or increasing confusion, would contact his doctor and get this evaluated.
